Howto: Creating user friendly mapping for non-drupal nerds

New version here

This howto will help you create a simple method for your clients to add locative information to a travelogue. I've been fiddling with a lot of options for doing this, including using feeds with gmap macros. Though gmap macro feeds have the advantage of offering specific marker types for the different feeds, I ended up using a method which does away with that feature, but gains tremendously in useability, due to the fact that the writer doesn't need to know the exact feed syntax and gmap macro syntax to make it work.
