Google released a Flash/ ActionScript API for Google Maps. Google says this allows current Flash developers to easily integrate Google Maps into existing Flash apps, but that it also...

  • ...provides new possibilities for displaying map content for developers currently not using Flash. Flash has just been released in a version 10 preview, by the way, bringing a couple of changes.
  • Google announced the winners for the first round of the Android mobile apps challenge with prize money of $25,000 each. Ten $275,000 prizes and ten $100,000 prizes are still outstanding for the next round.
  • Google released a code reference and library for HTML, CSS and JavaScript, named Google Doctype. We like to refer to it internally as the Hitchhikers Guide to the Web, creator and Google employee Mark Pilgrim says.
  • You can now more directly embed Google spreadsheet forms. Jim McNelis comments, I have been hacking a Google Spreadsheet form on my website through an iframe. I am glad they added the option to embed as well.
  • If you log-in to Google Analytics at the moment, youll see a system message alerting you that some data between April 30th and May 5th has been lost... though much of it was recovered, too, according to Google. Also see an earlier error Google disclosed in September 2007.
