Google offers embeddable maps

Google has announced the ability to include maps into blogs, but simply copying a html snippet into your blog. I actually thought this was possible already, but I must admit I have been looking for it and was unable to find it.
"The embedded maps have the full functionality of Google Maps - they provide satellite view, map view or hybrid view, and users can click and drag the maps around."(
Interesting development. I would have thought that you would be able to select anything from within maps or mymaps and copy that into anything on the web, just as you can do with picasalinks albums for instance. But apparently I am wrong here. Or maybe the information is not detailed enough yet. I am a huge Google fan, ad experience tought us all that Google makes embedding objects a breeze. So we'll wait and try it out as it comes available.

Exciting news though !
