Google Maps API

Registered users......
As per the Winlog32 news page, it looks like to continue to use the Google Maps API, Google will require you to register an account with them, so that if your FREE monthly usage limit is exceeded you will be charged, despite this inconvenience it is unlikely that you would exceed the 'free' limit using the API, but it's up to you if you want register an account which will likely require your bank details etc.
I, for one will not be using this service anymore, however the interface will be there in Winlog32 for anyone who does.
This only affects those registered users who have implemented the MAP API used with Winlog32 (not the integral maps), these changes will also impact other software/web page that use Google API's.
It looks like if you do not register an account by June 11 2018, it's likely it will stop working soon after.
Nothing I can do about it, sorry.
