Online newspaper makes its own "cheap gas" mashup

Update: Link corrected (Thanks Esa!)

The New Media Department at The Times Herald-Record in the Catskill and Hudson Valley region of New York State have created their own "Cheap-Gas" Google Maps mashup for that region. The mashup was created entirely by the media team at the online paper and does not utilize the GasBuddy+GMaps integration that some other U.S. newspapers have integrated. This is one more example of how the media is starting to integrate Google Maps into their online operations!

I'm working on a database of railbeds (existing, abandoned, and historic) for New York State. Currently have 100K points. That's way too many so it's split up into individual tracks.

this is cool, but i think it might violate the google maps usage agreement since this is commercial vs personal use? not sure?
