I updated my location, but my pin doesn't seem to be moving...

It was a, what-you-call battle of wills and blood was spilled. Vendettas were sworn. It was a whole-- Fred: My God you're so full of crap. Spike: Yeah. Okay.

Oh shit, I hadn't been in here in a bit, saw ita's posts at the start of where I came in (it was only like 15 posts ago or so) and got a gut punch. Woof.
Hits home again. Dammit.

Yeah, I changed my location as a test and the map is not reflecting the change. I vaguely thought I remembered this happening before but I can't find it inthread. Tried logging out and logging back in, and using a different browser, just in case but made no difference.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Interesting. Doesn't change for me, either, with a bonus (I think). I tried changing from a town and state designation to a slightly different zip code, and my peg didn't move, but a new blue peg appearred that I don't remember being there when I started. It's stuck in Medellin, Colombia, with user name "0". Which is an actual user name, but it shouldn't show as blue for me, right?
I wonder if Google maps changed their input parameters so that ours are no longer quite correct.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I tried narrowing mine down, adding a street instead of only the zip code, but my blue pin didn't update either. I can move the blue pin, but it doesn't stay after I close out. Now I'm back to just using the zip code, so the map shows me living in an auto parts store in the mountains.

Yeah, I see "0" as blue also, but that has been the case for years.

We need to use the new Google API: [link]
We also need an API key. The API key that we were using is invalid.

No, wait, we don't need an API key. Hold on. Let me figure out this PHP.

OK, if everything is working now, I should be in Madagascar.
