Jshape developer loads GIS SHP files on-the-fly using Google Map API

The developer of Jshape has come up with some really nifty uses of the Google Map API.  Using what they term the Google Map Control panel, the developers have created some very unique apps using the API. See http://www.jshape.com/GoogleMap/map.jsp?lat=0&lon=0&zoom=16&width=720&height=360 as an example of this. Taking this even further, the developer has loaded GIS SHP files into the Google Map on the fly... how cool is that! The SHP files are displayed in typical Google fashion, however, the attributes are listed within the info box. Check this out at http://www.jshape.com/GoogleMap/
