I Park Like An Idiot

Well I don’t, but some people do. I came out to my car several weeks back to see someone parked right next to my Beetle. I mean RIGHT next to it. I had no clue how they could have parked this close and even opened the door…..ridiculous.

I’m seriously considering some bumper stickers from iparklikeanidiot.com. How rewarding it would have been to put this sticker on their car:

    Hey Dennis,

    I came across your article where you described integrating google maps and flex. I would like to do this in a similar way.

    I saw at the bottom of your code, after the gmaps code, you used a classid.

    Where do you get the classid, codebase, and id values?

    Do you just put your swf file in the same directory as your gmaps html file?

    Your help would be much appreciated! You can email me at rao.girish@gmail.com

    Thx!

    Send me some please. I constantly run into this in San Francisco. Id rather have a portable flux imploder to be honest. ;)

    Hello,

    This comment is not about … cars..

    But i wanted to ask you how can i embed Google Maps within Flex…

    I saw your post.. where you have an HTML page and probably a transparent flash window floating on top of it. (did i get it right?)

    What i need is reverse… i have a flash application (no html page) – how can i bring google maps in.. do i need to embed a html page (is it even possible in flash) any other ideas?
