Yahoo offers a great deal of help to developers who want to use these APls to
create customized maps. Yahoo also permits third parties to host Yahoo map
mashups on their own sites, which is something important for researchers to look
for.

Yahoo is adding non-US local maps, using mapping technology provided by other
sources, such as Map24 for European locations. Here is a sample of what you get
for Germany. Notice the choice between static and dynamic maps, which allow
users to move around the map using a mouse. At this time, I recommend skipping
Yahoo Local in Europe and going directly to Map24, which is much better.
