I’ve just hacked together a beta version of what I hope will be the start of some ultra-cool greasemonkey scripts for lds.org. I’ve called mine SpicyWardWeb and it modifies your ward website membership directory page by adding google maps links to the addresses. I’m up for more cool ideas to implement. Let me know what you think. XPath rocks!
To use it you’ll need Firefox and Greasemonkey.

I tried it and it works very well. Thanks for sharing.
another possible idea to implement…
change the email icon to the actual email string
A cool thing would be to add a link at the end of the list that allows all of the addresses to be compiled on one Google Map with one click. Then you could plot out the entire ward. Could be helpful for a lot of things!
I’ve been trying to figure out how to do this for a while now. You are a genuis! This is so awesome especially when going sheparding! I agree with Adam - some kind of plot to multiple people or within a given area might be nice. Great Jeorb!
The way I understand it is that you must use Firefox to install this. Do the ward member visitors to the Web site need to be using Firefox also in order to view the map?
Made a few tweaks to add more info (family last name and address first line(too hard to parse out just apt number)) on the Google Maps side and to handle some addressing and url encoding/geocoding oddities caused by various apartment/floor numbering syntax. Feel free to incorporate the improvements into any updates.

This one works on the photo print page as well.
