Visual News Demo:
Live Reuters News fed as RSS to GeoNames rssToGeoRSS webservice with returned GeoRSS points displayed in OpenLayers on Google maps!


(Note: Use controls on left to zoom or move. Use '+' on right to select layers displayed. Click a marker to access the story.)
(Note 2: Google Maps is slower to load than the three point pipe of the news stories.)
(Note 3: Make sure you deselect the 'zoombox' before clicking on a marker else you will zoom in some more. No, I don't know why! :) )

Update: I just added the All Points Blog RSS feed to this map. It took 2 minutes....
