 * The instructions for getting an API key are outdated: [http://code.google.com/apis/maps/signup.html](http://code.google.com/apis/maps/signup.html)
 * Google maps doesn’t really even support or need an API key anymore. When you 
   follow the instructions to actually try and get one, Google blocks the API from
   working with this plugin, and just causes errors, and the map never shows.
 * I like this plugin, but it needs to be updated.
