Both these projects use Google Maps - the second one has a few special features added, like a custom zoom tool and locator beacons. I'm going to make the source available as soon as I neaten it up a bit and write some documentation.
The Google Maps API is worth mentioning as it's where the real power lies - combining two (or more) disparate data sources with a bit of server-side scripting and a bit of JS (although they could make the JS API throw back some better errors if you get it wrong) is an amazing ability.
A couple of my own examples: World Airport and Airspace Database and GeoNews - World News with Location Data
I recently missed Mashup Camp due to being in the wrong country at the time, but homefully I'll make the next one:)

Here ya go :D
World Airport and Airspace Database - Really cool if you like looking at aeroplanes and airports
GeoNews - News with geographical data - See global news feeds parsed for place data and plotted on a map.
