About the plugin:
This is a nice and simple Google Maps & Places jQuery plugin.
Features:
- UI for users to “select” a place (you get a callback detailing what they picked)
- UI for adding “custom” places
- support for firing a map up full-window (without having to create a DIV on the page)
- add searching to the map
- add/Edit and update your own “custom places” (i.e. not those in the Google Places API doesn’t know about, but you do)
- works with multiple maps on the same page
