I don't know if this is anything but a demo -- but think of putting a searchable map on your website. I presume, if parchment is possible, then lots of other looks are. The spyglass sucks as an interface. But Yahoo has some technology going here that Google doesn't have, and they'll have to do some thinking. Google's actual maps are a lot better, but the imaging tech of Yahoo is bery, bery good.

Yahoo maps plus a jpeg that makes it look like a pirate map around it? 10 minutes of web design? No digg for you.

Yeah this seem to work for me either. There's no spyglass to drag around just a map of the gulf coast on some scroll looking thing...
