Greetings, This application: http://trails.zgroks.com allows users to add markers and comments to an SQL database. It also allows users to flag markers which generates an email to the administrator; allows the markers to be toggled on/off individually or as a group; includes maps at maps.google.com as editable layers; creates permalinks and short URL's that can be shared on facebook; links to a clone view at OpenStreetMap.org; it incorporates google Geocoder() so users can also search for locations (haven't included Local Search, though); allows the user to toggle various fusion table layers and other user-added data off and on. Also examples at: http://trip.zgroks.com and http://gosmap.zgroks.com.
