We've just released an update to the Twitter Maps application in the Bing Maps Application Gallery. NOW, you can embed our Twitter Maps functionality into your own web site. This means you can be cool by having a Bing Map on your web site, blog, favorite social networking site with the Tweets you care about. And, WOW, it’s super easy.
You can do this in four easy steps:

Hello Chris,
The embed code does not work when you set it to "Fixed". "Anywhere" works fine. See www.liveside.net/.../embed-bing-maps-twitter-maps-in-your-website.aspx
It seems that Silverlight enabled Map Apps are responsible for providing embed code options. Why not take the same approach as classic Bing Maps?
Very impressive tool. I tried it.
This is a brilliant social tool!
nice tool..

@John - Silverlight gives us more flexibility in the application gallery. You can have AJAX Twitter Maps. There's an option for that in the EMBED feature.
This is sweet.
I'm going on a cross country this with my family summer and would love to use this same idea for my family's blog posts. I'd like to overlay the geocoded posts on top of an alrady saved map. Instead of using Twitter I was thinking of using something like Ping.fm so we could handle multiple media types.
Does anyone have any ideas for an already built app that can handle this?

Is there a Tumblr version?
