Getting the Google Maps v2 API Key

Question

It seems that between the development of my website and go-live (now), Google shook the Google Maps API v2. I'm all for progress, but rewriting all my card code seems to be too much for me to handle at this point in time.

Is it possible to get the Google Maps v2 API key in some hidden corner of the Internet?

Answer 1

Get the new console key from https://code.google.com/apis/console as described in version 3 docs at https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/tutorial#api_key . Console keys work with version 2 and provide the benefits of statistics reports.

This is against the Keyless API Terms of Use, and in fact it will not work on domains that are not Google, for example http://codethink.no-ip.org/mapHacks.html . The version of this webpage works because it is in a Google domain.
