Herman made an excellent stack that demos the use of Google Maps. I have a link to it here: http://earthlearningsolutions.org/google-static-maps-demo/ <http://earthlearningsolutions.org/google-static-maps-demo/> You need to get an API key from Google, but the demo shows how to set it up. This may be more useful than the widget, as there is a lot of documentation by Google on how to set it up, which is pretty easy. Best, Bill
