That would answer why it loaded the map 1 time REAL slowly and then not at all. I am looking forward to the plug-in. Thanks!

Besides that, GPSToday now does driving directions, location sharing, and most importantly, geogroups. Any user can now create or join a geogroup to collaborate on location data, without having to divulge your identity. Being the group-owner of a popular group will have (monetary) benefits down the line. Early users have already snapped up the most important groups like speed-traps, geocaching, foreclosures and so on.
Also, the today-plugin version with all the new features will be released next week.

Edit: infact it looks as if no one has yet created a group "ppcgeeks-users" or similar.
