Add CommunityWalk Maps To Your Google Home Page

Hot on the heels of the enhanced mini map iframe functionality (See Previous Post), I whipped up a little Google Home Page module that lets you include any map from CommunityWalk on your Google Home Page.

Here is an screen shot of my Google Home Page where I included one of my favorite maps, Big Ben's Virtual Victoria.



IF you want to do this yourself follow these steps:

1) Go to your Google Home Page

2) Click "Add Content" in the upper left corner of the screen

3) In the "Create A Section" field enter: http://www.communitywalk.com/google/cw_google.xml

4) This will add a blank CommunityWalk module to your Google Home Page

5) Now enter the ID of a map into the "Map ID" field. Any map's id can be found in the url of the map, so http://www.communitywalk.com/map/109 would have an id of 109

6) Click "Save"

And there you have it. Your personalized CommunityWalk map on your personalized Google Home Page.
