Yahoo Maps integrated with event.module and location.module

I saw this post on kottke.org this morning and decided to give a Yahoo maps module a shot.

Here's the first draft: Yahoo Mapping Module for Drupal. There are a lot of configuration options yet to be integrated, but it works pretty much as expected. The module requires location.module and event.module in order to plot upcoming concerts.

I scrapped my database and started over with a clean install of Drupal 4.6.3, so there are only three concerts in the queue at the moment, but you get the idea.

The nice thing about Yahoo Maps vs. Google Maps is that Yahoo Maps will much more accurately locate a street address. No need to pass a precise lat/long combination.

Check it out!

nice!

I really like this implementation. Do you have any idea when the module will be ready? Nice work!
