Now that we’ve finished our first sprint I’ve figured out the answer to my question, “do we need a break between sprints?” Yes.

Podcast GMap. I took our podcast data, located it according to host ip, then put it into a google map. Then I added popups with the Odeo player. The data is static, the ip address geo data is spotty, and the underlying podcast data comes from a one time database dump. But what the heck, I had fun. Plus note the gubernator podcast coming from sacramento.
Special thanks to Perl Wizard Rich Gibson and Schuyler Erle for their Google Maps Hacks book.
Everyone else made really awesome hacks. I’ll be sure to call them out as they get released.
