Title: Google api usage and new costs
Post by: xmanhattan on July 23, 2012, 14:48:11

Just in case you have not recently gone to https://code.google.com/apis/console (https://code.google.com/apis/console) you may have to login to see it.
You will find that Google is now putting their price lists for new products and for excessive usage on services such as google maps.

Stavro as you remember 4 months ago i was trying to get a new google map key and it was impossible. All those links there were, disappeared and i had asked you to check it also for sure. That's why i created Bing Maps Bot (http://www.elxis-downloads.com/downloads/miscellaneous/376.html) to give an alternative solution.

You can still get a google map key but you have to have a separate account.  I created one for the customer and got the map key and analytics.

Yes, we are going to a pay for everything world soon enough even on the net!  The new trend in the USA is to reduce and limit bandwidth, they believe that this will also reduce p2p and piracy.
