Beijie Blog - Google News geolocation map of news article display on the webpage

Google has started using Google Maps to display locations related to news events on its republished news pages. For instance, in a news article about Brazil and India filing complaints against Microsoft regarding the listing of Open Office XML as an international standard, Google used Google Maps to mark the location of the International Electrotechnical Commission in Geneva, Switzerland, which is relevant to the news, on the bottom left of the republished news webpage.
