Unofficial Google Maps Viewer 0.9a is travel software developed by Lokkju, Inc.
Unofficial Google Maps Viewer Widget is a simple public alpha of a Google Maps viewer for the Dashboard.

It is currently in alpha stage, since there is one major bug — it will not show the content in the pop-up pin windows. There is a second bug, though not major — dragging on the map does not work unless you flip to the widget’s backside and back again.

Other then this, everything should work — though of course, it is a work in progress, and comments are welcome.

Many thanks to the people at mygmaps.com, for their hard work in pioneering Google map hacking.

Just to let people know, future plans for this widget include a pop-out sidebar for directions support, support for loading your own xml/xsl mapping files, support for Google’s satellite maps (this is already done, just not enabled), and, if I can pull it off, pulling terraserver satellite mapping data into this widget — allowing better resolution, though with older photographs, for the satellite view.
Unofficial Google Maps Viewer 0.9a supports different languages (including english). It works with Mac OS X.
