Google APIs in Ajax applications: Where and When
Space and Time are 2 important dimensions along which you can organize the world information. Google provides APIs to help deal with both: Google Maps and Google Calendar. The Google Maps API has been around for a year and defined how services could be exposed as javascript components for Mashup type Ajax applications.
