Bing maps now gives you the ability to create a custom Twitter map and embed it onto your website. Visit Bing Maps Explore and click My Maps in the lower right of the tool panel.

One nice little detail is this awesome transition when you open the Mini Map. Subtle, but so cool with the rapid ease out and little zoom. I couldn’t stop clicking it.

Twitter Maps is just one of many areas to explore in the My Maps area of Bing Maps Silverlight.
