    Here is a revelation for you Whale....Ireland as a whole has terrible website design...Look at most Gov websites where you would think with all of the Tax intake and money to "advisers" for this that and the other.....that they would have modern websites.

    Nope....1990s website design.

    Facebook has really killed Web Design industry...dumbed things down....

    I can't remember the last time I saw a "Find you local... shop, branch, whatever" feature with a map that actually works. It must be contagious.

    As a designer I can tell you that there isn't many of those kind of Map features because any website that would have a lot of hits would cost a fortune in Google Map fees....

    Aren't embedded maps free for public facing websites?
