Insert GPS position/Google Maps link in Status

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Would like to be able to insert link to google map.

Brightkite's already good for this though.

I would just like to be able to see the twitter-based location which can be 
viewed in
people's profiles like how twitterific does it.

This may be a little more complicated -> parse the location/address and call 
Google
Maps Mobile.

In the latest builds this seems to work. Though it changes the Twitter Profile 
location as well. I would love to be able to indicate only a link be inserted 
and/or 
the location profile be changed, but not both by default.

Here is my example:

I am in Lacey, WA. That is good enough for the location if I'm at home, but if 
i'm a 
particular mall for example and I want to post my location, I would love to 
just 
post the link, but not change the profile because if I forget to do a location 
change when I get all my tweets will show at the mall, even though I am no 
longer 
there.
