[mapguide-users] google maps as base layer

[ed57gmc-bus at yahoo.com]

FYI,
Several lately have inquired about using Google maps as a base layer, including me. I did a comparison of Google, Yahoo and MS Live maps and found that MS was able to zoom in the closest. Google was the worst. In my neighborhood, the street name of my street did not display because Google could not zoom in close engough. Therefore I recommend using MS Live. 

I also have not found anything listing the exact steps to create a layer of one of these services in mg, just bits and pieces here and there. So when I get it worked out, (hopefully I will), I'll post back here.
