Google maps need a key?

Hi there,

since a will, we were using google maps API (without a gmap_key) to show maps in our apps, but since 2 days ago the maps are not showed anymore. If I use a key the map is now showed, so I'm wondering if someone else is having this "change" or issue regarding the API.

This is happening in our servers (Prod and Dev) and in my own computer.

Thanks in advance!!

Something no one mentions, is this works fine for 25,000 views if you're on your local wifi. But, if you're on an iPhone or Android and accessing the maps via cell network, you may see this image much more frequently as Google counts ALL hits from a given provider and 25K adds up really fast in a single day.

The solution is to register for an API key and use it. Then Google only counts YOUR keys API requests. HTH.
