Google Static Maps in a feed: Referer problem
Automated disclaimer: This post was written more than 15 years ago and I may not have looked at it since.
Older posts may not align with who I am today and how I would think or write, and may have been written in reaction to a cultural context that no longer applies. Some of my high school or college posts are just embarrassing. However, I have left them public because I believe in keeping old web pages aliveāand it's interesting to see how I've changed.
I've successfully embedded Google Static Maps in an RSS feed that I'm working on, and it displays great in standalone feed readers. Unfortunately, if someone tries to subscribe to my feed using a web-based reader/aggregator (such as Google Reader), my images don't know how I'd get that)
Is there some trick I can embed key-less static maps in their referer), using their API key for any site, so now I can use to make this work? Here are the options I can embed key-less static maps in
