+{{"""
+this is an example of usage of google map
+the web2py action should be something like:
+
+def map():
+    return dict(
+      googlemap_key='...',
+      center_latitude = 41.878,
+      center_longitude = -87.629,
+      scale = 7,
+      maker = lambda point: A(row.id,_href='...')
+      points = db(db.point).select() where a points have latitute and longitude
+    )
+
+the corresponding views/defaut/map.html should be something like:
+
+    \{\{extend 'layout.html'\}\}
+    <center>\{\{include 'generic.map'\}\}</center>
