I'm hoping to use nicemap, or if I absolutely have to, gmap in order to display information from my activity feed. That is, people do something on my site, if i know their location, the map updates immediately, live. No reloading.
Where can I find information on doing something like this?

I really hate how gmap moves and scrolls and generally looks clunky. nicemap is much nicer. just don't know if this is possible with nicemap!

Currently Nicemap doesn't
Currently Nicemap doesn't really provide a way for you to do this, it's currently designed to handle more static map displays. There are related technologies like openlayers http://openlayers.org/ which provide this kind of functionality, but there is certainly work to be done getting that setup.
