Yes, you can.

Drag and zoom accordingly. When you have the map how you want it, click the link in the top right labled "link to this page".

For example, I start with a map of fort wayne, drag and zoom and end up with an image of our test track by clicking that link.
I tried that too. I swear, it didn't work for me earlier. But I just tried it again, and it seems to be working now...

In a challenge only a geek could appreciate...

I challenged my tuesday bar group (a bunch of engineers) to do a statistical analysis of 42 midgets vs a lion based on D&D stats.

Okay... when you find somewhere you like by clicking and dragging and zooming... how do you save the location and send the URL for that save?
just click the "link to this page" link and it changes your addy bar so you can copy and paste. Yes, it updates the lat/long coords that you are viewing.
