Version 2.0 is fianlly here. Sorry for the delay in getting this out, but the job that pays the bills always seems to get in thte way. If you have an older version be sure to uninstall it. There are way too many enhancements to list (like a new back-end admin page). For those of you new to Joogle it is a Google Maps Mashup that maps the entries of the Community Builder user table. Joomla installs as a component and at each visit makes a call to the above table to determine if there are any new users, if so, it then geocodes their addresses and adds them to the google map with clickable icons that link the user profile and show a thumbshot of their website (if supplied at registration and if available through thumbshots.org). The clickable icon use tabbed info baloons. the first tab shows the users' avatar as well as a clickable link to their profile. the second tab shows the thumbshot of their web site if available, otherwise a clickable link to it. Joogle also supports city level geocoding in countries where google doesn't geocode by using the Yahoo geocoder for these countries (like the UK). This requires a free Yahoo App ID. Joogle also geocodes the host IP of the visitor and centers and zooms the map to that coordinate.

If it would work better :-)
- map is not resisable
- joogle doesn't pickup the coordinates anymore? (did before)
- I got an error now from reïnstalling it , Google API key don't work anymore :-/ Can't create a new.

Hope I get this working again.
Nice if it worked well.
