I like it. (my unsolicited advice) depending on how you are storing the data, you should let the user pass a query string or something to the url that returns the raw lat long in json format as opposed to the actual map, that way you have this mini api for more advanced users.

That's already there ;) You can get any location in JSON, given the generated key: eg. http://geo.gy/LmZW/json
