Vodafone Hometown GP
Vodafone Hometown GP builds a 3D racetrack based on your personally designed track and then lets you race against the clock on your very own creation.
The game uses Google Maps to let you build a racetrack anywhere in the world. Just zoom in on a location and you can start building your track by laying it out on the road map of your chosen location.
When you have laid out your track you can decorate it with signs and roadside buildings. Once you have decorated your track you are ready to burn some rubber.
The game lets you race against the clock on your 3D racetrack. The game involves downloading a plug-in but it is worth it for some pretty impressive 3D graphics and some pretty impressive game-play. Don't believe me? Then check out this YouTube video:
When you tire of racing on your track you can save it and share it with the world via Twitter and Facebook.

Graffiti on Google Maps
Graff Map
Graff Map uses Google Maps to map graffiti locations around the world.
At the moment the map mainly shows graffiti in Melbourne, Australia. Users can submit their own locations to the map so hopefully the map will have wider coverage soon. Graff Map uses Street View where available to show pictures of the submitted graffiti but users can also submit their own photographs.
The developer of Graff Map has plans to add more functionality to the map soon, including, a top 10 list, voting, comments and tags.
