Well, it is easy to do it via google maps API. I did this once before on my
old dev installed, which I'm pretty sure was trashed, but could be redone.
You need to store everyones lat/lon, and then generate an xml file with the
proper info, but it's not to tricky. Granted using a service based on
PostGIS would be cooler, but I've not yet seen one as simple to use as
google's stuff.
