How to detect a point beneath an overlay using Google Maps API
Posted by Alessio | 7th December 2011
Today I had to do something a bit crazy: create a searchable layer over a Google Map.
I generally don't get APIs made by Google, they are not much better than YOUTUBE APIs. They are basically nonsense and about as easy to understand as a joke made in ancient greek.
I had been using version 2 of the Google Maps API. It was old, a bit complex, but it was working for me. Today I thought it was about time to move on, so I started working on version 3.
