Another Google Maps application! Gvisit tracks where your visitors are and display them on a map.
Registration is free, but it tracks only the last 20 visits. A donation of any amount will upgrade it to 100 last visits. You might want to check out ClustrMaps (previously known as HitMaps) which tracks 1000 visits but currently requires an invite to join.

One of the useful Google Maps services. Instead of dull text-only messages, your users can now tell you where they are by adding a pin in the Google Maps to leave you a message on your guest book.
Go ahead, add me a pin!.
Google Maps have extended to the moon. Sort of. Not all moon surfaces are covered. In fact, you can only see a fraction of them. Previous landings of the Apollos are marked.
Update: There is a hidden easter egg: try to zoom your map to the maximum level.

Find the landmark lets you play with Google Maps. In every game, it presents you a name of the landmark, and you must click on the position of the landmark on a US map in shortest time possible.

To quote the wikipedia,
The Marree Man, is Australia’s and the worlds biggest geoglyph, (a figure or symbol cut into the earth). The figure is huge, about 4 kilometres (2 1/2 miles) from head to toe.The Marree Man was first publicised in 1998, soon after it was made. Who cut the figure and why remains a mystery, it is located in the outback of South Australia about 20 kilometres (13 miles) from the town of Marree. It is generally assumed to be a figure of an Australian Aboriginal hunter.
