Before you read anymore, look at what I have ... so far after just a few minutes of work. I added just a few spots for testing.
http://www.iamdeadnow.info/map/
I used to use Google Maps to plot places that I went to that I always forgot about. Now I want to make a Google Map on my website for points of interest for homeless, free stuff, freegan dumpster spots, counter culture spots, free things/places/food, squatting [not squats obviously] etc.
I saw the google earth project, but the reality is that when I am out traveling i have a small pack and no computer for weeks or months at a time. So most library pcs wont have google earth, but with a website, anyone can access my map, versus having to download a file and need specific software. With this, you just need a browser.
I am sure that people are worried about "secrets" etc, but most things are public knowledge anyway, this is just all of this knowledge on one map with address, phone, map, description, etc.
If anyone is interested in working on it, or contributing spots, then hit me up. Working on it the next few days to make it a complete "web 2.0 app".
