I don't know whether an iframe will work in either email or RSS, but let's try it anyways...

Now, if this worked, what you should see is a Google Map interface with one of my photos (specifically, Spring Garden Road in Halifax on December 31, just before the snowfall, seen here). If you don't see it, try clicking the title of this post to see it on my website. This technique was found in the excellent How to embed almost anything on your website pointed to by Scott Leslie. If you have your own website and can play with this, I really recommend it. It's a great exercise - not just for using APIs and creating maps. I finally saw how to run Java .jar files on my computer (there were, of course, errors - Java never runs clean - but it ran!).
