Another day... of work. Sighith, yahoo(this isnt me cheering) i shall start in the morning hmmm.

Start at: 8.00 a.m.

Here is where i will begin.
OK somehow i got looking at licensing stuff,
"Yahoo! reserves the right to charge fees for future use of or access to the Yahoo! Maps APIs or the Yahoo! services and web sites (collectively, "Yahoo! Maps APIs Services") in Yahoo!'s sole discretion. If Yahoo! decides to charge for the Yahoo! Maps APIs Services, such charges will be disclosed to you prior to their effect. Yahoo! also reserves the right to include advertising in or associated with the maps images provided to you through the Yahoo! Maps APIs. Similarly, if Yahoo! decides to include advertising, such decision will be disclosed to you prior to its effect."
Ewwww evil advertising. But apparently there are no fees?
OK carrying on with more important stuff... i have applied for a developer account, and got a key for the application i will play around with. So far the process of setting up this key seemed a little more strict than the other ones, as i had to provide a website, a description, my phone number etc. Which is annoying because i'm not "reaaaly" making a proper application.
Your application id is fpw4OQvV34FRVdZWur6SuqgDKrDnAI4yt499aqxdv124ynUZOuZqKG960u0e35o.
Please note that the maps dont work anymore, but the code is still viewable.
Super <--- heres the page i will be updating, at the moment its just showing a basic map.

This new version adds some simple polyline functionality. Because i'm tired and Yahoo! Maps obviously isnt going to picked due to its lack of world mapping i am going to stop here and make a conclusion.
************************************************************************
Conclusion!!
Yahoo! Maps API is super simple to use and implement and is generally slower than the other maps, however the fact that it doesnt map New Zealand and Australia is an instant epic fail.
************************************************************************
Tomorow i will choose which API i will continue in more detail and add more about that specific mapping service.

I think Yahoo is the predominate product in my opinion. Slick backgrounds, fast tracking and can I just say the Zoom In function is orgasmic! 10/10. Keep up the good work friend.
ZOMG predominate NUUUU *twitch* maybe if you live in america and like to wait ages for things to load.
