Tips & Tools for Geographic Searching and Remixing (Hacks):
Book by Rich Gibson and Schuyler Erle. O'Reilly Media 337 pages Paperback Published 2006-01-01. Description: Want to find every pizza place within a 15-mile radius? Where the dog parks are in a new town? The most central meeting place for your class, club or group of friends? The cheapest gas stations on a day-to-day basis? The location of convicted sex offenders in an area to which you may be considering moving? The applications, serendipitous and serious, seem to be infinite, as developers find ever more creative ways to add to and customize the satellite images and underlying API of Google Maps. Written by Schuyler Erle and Rich Gibson, authors of the popular Mapping Hacks, Google Maps Hacks shares dozens of tricks for combining the capabilities of Google Maps with your own datasets. Such diverse information as apartment listings, crime reporting or flight routes can be integrated with Google's satellite imagery in creative ways, to yield new and useful applications. The authors begin with a complete introduction to the "standard" features of Google Maps. The adventure continues with 60 useful and interesting mapping projects that demonstrate ways developers have added their own features to the maps. After that's given you ideas of your own, you learn to apply the techniques and tools to add your own data to customize and manipulate Google Maps. Even Google seems to be tacitly blessing what might be seen as unauthorized use, but maybe they just know a good thing when they see one. With the tricks and techniques you'll learn from Google Maps Hacks, you'll be able to adapt Google's satellite map feature to create interactive maps for personal and commercial applications for businesses ranging from real estate to package delivery to home services, transportation and more. Includes a foreword by Google Maps tech leads, Jens and Lars Rasmussen.
- Review:: 'Valuable content from all perspectives I've read both this and the [ExtremeTech]Create? "Hacking Google Maps," and both have their place, but I found this one to be much more valuable. It doesn't contain any introductory information to the API, which some may be looking for, but it's not something that I would expect to see in a Hacks book anyway. With the v2 release of the API in April 2006, Google's own documentation has gotten a lot better, and it's the best place to go for a tutorial. The book contains a great collection of hacks from all perspectives: users looking to get the most out of Google Maps, power users looking to push the functionality in new ways, and developers using the API. There's also a good overview of some popular mashups from the mashups' developers perspectives, and extensions to the API (e.g. TLabel, TPhoto). Because there are so many contributors, you'll notice a change in tone and writing style throughout the book; and different coding practices are easy to spot, e.g. one code sample might use a standard, documented JS call, while another uses a homegrown function to accomplish the same thing. Another drawback is that the book is written to v1 of the API, which was replaced months ago, although is backwards compatible. This doesn't affect readability or value, but several of the undocumented features in the book are in fact documented in v2! Great book, filled with useful information.
- Review:: 'VERY VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! Google Maps Hacks: Tips & Tools for Geographic Searching and Remixing (Hacks) (Paperback) Are you a Google application developer? If you are, then this book is for you! Authors Rich Gibson and Schuyler Erle, have done an outstanding job of writing a book that shows you how to take full advantage of the mapping capabilities in Google Local. Gibson and Erle, begin by showing you how to look up locations, get driving directions, look at satellite pictures, share links to maps in e-mails and on web pages, generate links to maps from a spreadsheet, and use del.icio.us. Then, the authors show you how to put a map on your page, capture user clicks, create a slideshow connected with a map, create custom icons, and measure distances. Next, they cover a variety of mashups, from mapping the news, to seeing where criminals "work," to weather maps, to answering the question: where is the Space Telescope right now. The authors then help you find the cheapest gas near you, load driving directions into your GPS to take with you, look at your GPS track logs, explore hiking trails, figure out why your cell phone doesn't work at home, and even beat a traffic ticket. They continue by showing you how to geocode your photos on Flickr, set up a blog that knows about place, geocode literature, and examine the choices that go into which satellite images are included. Then, the authors show you how to tweak and extend the Google map. Finally, they show you how to use a clustering algorithm so that your own points fit properly on a map, create your own map tiles, connect to a database, use web standards to display other data on your maps, an even figure out if your kids are likely to barf. This most excellent book will show you how to make the most of Google Maps. More importantly, you'll find the tools and inspiration you need right in this book!
- Review:: 'Where are the basics? The collection of apps here are fascinating. But I looked for a tutorial telling me "this is how you embed a map, select several points of interest, and label them.". It was not visible.
- Review:: 'DIY Cartography Everyone knows Google Maps. Google has gone out of its way to make Google Maps something that everyone knows about, uses, and talks about. There are blogs that are just about all the mash-ups and hacks people have come up with for Google Maps. And now, O'Reilly has released Google Maps Hacks, showing how anyone can use the Google Maps API for their own benefit, with a little help. The book starts off with a basic tutorial on how to add a Google Map to your site - if you're going to mash up, you have to have something to mash, after all! It also (in Hack 27) shows you how to use Greasemap to add Google Maps functionality to any web site (assuming you've already got Greasemonkey and Firefox is your browser). As with all hacks books, Google Maps Hacks includes some basic hacks that just about anyone can do (and points to some great places to see great hacks already done!), and some that are going to require a bit of work and some programming skill. There were several hacks in the book that I really loved. First, the book pointed me to a site promising to show me where I could find cheap gas. They've integrated Google Maps with [GasBuddy]Create? to create something incredibly useful, though I wish it were updated more often. (My local station hasn't been updated since September of 2005!) To use the really good hacks, you'll need a GPS. Many of the mash-ups are best used when you're out on the road. (Hack 35 shows how to dump Google Maps data to your GPS system, and #37 shows how to reverse that process and import your GPS Tracklogs to Google Maps.) The most useful part of the book, though, is when we get to see how various mash-ups work. It's one thing to see a great use of the Google Maps API, it's another thing completely to understand how that's done so that you can do it yourself. And that's really what's valuable about the Hacks books - you're shown how something is done, so you can take that understanding and apply it to what you want to do. That's what hacking is all about - information and application of that information in new ways.
- Review:: 'The power of mashups using Google Maps... One of the most popular features to come out of Google has been their Google Maps site. In addition to just being able to see places and get directions, there's a whole application programming interface (API) behind it. Rich Gibson and Schuyler Erle start to show you what that can do in the book Google Maps Hacks: Tips & Tools for Geographic Searching and Remixing. Contents: You Are Here - Introducing Google Maps; Introducing the Google Maps API; Mashing Up Google Maps; On the Road with Google Maps; Google Maps in Words and Pictures; API Tips and Tricks; Extreme Google Maps Hacks; Index Gibson and Erle have bundled up 70 hacks that begin to show you the power and "coolness" of Google Maps. The whole "Web 2.0/Mashups" phenomenon has led to tools like Greasemonkey that allow you to mix and match features from various sites to create whole new pages where the sum is greater than the parts. For instance, there are a number of sites that take real-time traffic information, mix it with Google Maps, and give you a whole new way to avoid traffic (Hack #30 - Stay Out of Traffic Jams). Or let's say that you're tracking an internet packet to see the route it takes to get to you, and you want to add a visual element to it. Hack #26 - Follow Your Packets Across the Internet takes traceroute information, mixes with it Google Maps, and gives you a visual rendering of how things get from there to you. There's even a home-brew hack by the author who has spent too many car trips with barfing kids. Hack #70 - Will the Kids Barf? takes the straight-line distance between point A and B, then the distance via roads. If the Detour Index is over 120, experience has taught him that barf bags might be wise... There's an abundance of code examples in many of the hacks, so it should take little effort for you to personalize many of these hacks to your own use and locale. Great book, fun read, and a real eye-opener to the power of mashups. Well worth reading...
Book by Brett [McLaughlin]Create?. O'Reilly Media 413 pages Paperback Published 2006-03-01. Description: Sick of creating web sites that reload every time a user moves the mouse? Tired of servers that wait around to respond to users' requests for movie tickets? It sounds like you need a little (or maybe a lot of) Ajax in your life. Asynchronous programming lets you turn your own websites into smooth, slick, responsive applications that make your users feel like they're back on the information superhighway, not stuck on a dial-up backroad. But who wants to take on next-generation web programming with the last generation's instruction book? You need a learning experience that's as compelling and cutting-edge as the sites you want to design. That's where we come in. With Head Rush Ajax, in no time you'll be writing [JavaScript]Create? code that fires off asynchronous requests to web servers...and having fun doing it. By the time you've taken your dynamic HTML, XML, JSON, and DOM skills up a few notches, you'll have solved tons of puzzles, figured out how well snowboards sell in Vail, and even watched a boxing match. Sound interesting? Then what are you waiting for? Pick up Head Rush Ajax and learn Ajax and asynchronous programming the right way--the way that sticks. If you've ever read a Head First book, you know what to expect: a visually rich format designed for the way your brain works. Head Rush ramps up the intensity with an even faster look and feel. Have your first working app before you finish Chapter 1, meet up with the nefarious PROJECT: CHAOS stealth team, and even settle the question of the Top 5 Blues CDs of all time. Leave boring, clunky websites behind with 8-tracks and hot pants--and get going with next-generation web programming. "If you thought Ajax was rocket science, this book is for you. Head Rush Ajax puts dynamic, compelling experiences within reach for every web developer." -- Jesse James Garrett, Adaptive Path "A 'technology-meets-reality' book for web pioneers on the cutting edge." -- Valentin Crettaz, CTO, Condris Technologies
- Review:: 'Good introduction to AJAX. Probably not useful as a reference book but will serve well as introduction. The cluttered style with rather odd callouts can get a little distracting. Having said all that, I still think it's worth 4 stars because it does cover the basics in a serial fashion and the callouts did address some questions as we proceeded. Perhaps if the balloons were more serious and a bit more direct instead of attempting to be so cool they would be more useful.
- Review:: 'good for beginners...bad for professionals If you are completely new to web development, then this book is for you. If you have at least a moderate understanding of HTML, [JavaScript]Create?, and the request/response model, then you don't need a book on Ajax--especially this one. Ajax is a very simple concept and this book will probably be way too simplistic for you. Save your money and spend 10 minutes browsing the internet.
- Review:: 'Makes my eyes hurt I was wanting to learn something about AJAX, and this book caught my eye online. I wish I had browsed it in a store, because I could have gotten a book that would have been more useful to me. I'm sure it is an excellent book, but I think it is targeted for people younger than myself (I'm 47). All of the "hand written" notes with arrows, the "thrown on the page" layout, too many different fonts, it all just makes my eyes hurt, and makes it very difficult for me to follow. Will either sell it, or it will collect dust on the shelf.
- Review:: 'Good for beginners But unfortunately not good for an experienced programmer. Headrush books are really good at teaching if you like to hear everything three times, each time taught a different way to you. That's the headrush style; They use cute examples, drawings, and text to teach. If you learn best by reading a reference book with concise examples, this book is the complete opposite. I'm one of the concise reference types, so this book was a poor choice for me. I have to dig to find the code examples, and when I do find them they're tied together with lines or hidden on the branches of a tree. Is this a good book? Yes, it's incredibly well written. But it has a very unique teaching style that works for some, but not for me. If you're experienced in HTML and CSS, and have used an object oriented language before, I'd recommend another book.
- Review:: 'Very Friendly Intro to AJAX I am no new-comer to AJAX having read a number of books including AJAX in Action (Crane), AJAX Patterns and Best Practices (Gross), CSS Mastery (Budd), DOM Scripting (Keith), etc. I felt compelled to read the book based on my past experience with the other books in the Head First series, of which I have read all of them. Reading this pointed out some basic things that I didn't pick up in the other texts. The book is an excellent intro to AJAX and will give you a firm grounding so that you can facilitate your understanding of the concepts with the more advanced texts mentioned above. Some people object to the style. I find it to be didactically refreshing. It's very different - there's interactivity - almost like having classroom training. Some complain that it is repetitive. It is repetitive because it's a known fact that we learn and understand key notions by having them explained to us in different ways - and it enhances remembering. It's a form of diadactics. That's a good thing. I suggest that one read the Head First HTML and CSS book before reading this one if you don't have the background - but I think the book doesn't assume much, and can be read by just about anyone. It also motivates the reader to seek more advanced texts on DOM manipulation, Javascript, CSS, and even server side technologies. I really think that this series of books should be put into an online course format. Maybe using Moodle with a plugin that would allow simulating the examples. It would be great for learning because it would facilitate the hands-on interactivity that one needs to truly understand the concepts that they are trying to get across in these books. If the course is developed properly, the book could be used to complement the online course - so the publisher would actually benefit with increased book sales. And, if there is a course designer/developer working along side the authors, it would also be very efficient to create.
