Google Maps

GMDir shows a number of application for Google Maps

For example here is a weather map of Tulsa, with symbols for wind velocity and direction at various parts of the city

oodle has Google Map applications (For Sale items, Cars, Housing, Jobs and other local services) for a number of cities, unfortunately Tulsa is not one of them

BeenMapped offers the ability to bookmark particular locations and share their location with others. I did not see any for Tulsa.

Spacecraft Tracking tracks the International Space Station and Space Shuttle (while it's in orbit). So will this one

Earthquake showes the latest Earthquakes in the US measuring in magnitude greater than 1.5. This shows recent earthquakes.

Geobloggers shows geocoded flickr photos on a Google Map. There are 10 for the Tulsa area

Texas Sex Offenders allows you to plot Texas sex offenders on a map by zipcode and then be able to display the offense details by clicking on their names. Wish we had that for Oklahoma, which is not even included in the National Sex Offender Public Registry, but are included here, along with a Violent Crime Offender Registry
