Vigorous Hive

kml based widget and shortcode for displaing your data on embedded google map in sidebar or post or page. You can edit your map on google maps site, or manually, keep kml hosted on google servers or on your own – all up to you. Simple, but effective and full functional.

Hi,
I did not use your plugin at all, in fact I didn't even read what is for, but I'm giving you a five star rating anyway, because unlike you, I'd never give a low rating to a plugin without knowing what it actually does, or without reading the full documentation. I do not like your code either, but that's OK, since I think you may have a different approach than mine.
I really hope you appreciate the fact that most WP plugin developers are nice to each other and far from being such cunts :)
