Maps are on everyone's web site these days. Google, Yahoo and Microsoft have made it pretty easy. But can you count on these services working as you expect well into the future?

Lionel Laské creates an API that insulates you from changes like these, making it an easy matter to switch from one provider to another without extensive code changes. Read all about it in "MyMap: A Portable API for Maps."
