#1: New feature - interactive beach and town maps

Thanks to Google offering the ability to add maps to any website, World Beach List now has a small map on any beach or town page with a known location.

This map shows markers with nearby beaches and town. If you click on one of the markers, the name of the underlying feature is shown with a link to take you to that page. Pan and zoom are offered through controls on the map and by dragging around the map by clicking in it and moving your mouse.

For the United States and United Kingdom street level maps are available. For the rest of the world satellite views can be shown. I'm sure over time that more street level maps will be added to Google's map service.
