I think the title should read "Résumé using Google Maps". The current title is an imperative asking me to start using Google Maps again.

Or even better, C.V., since that's what the OP used in his description.

"Ed Hamilton - Copywriter This is my CV on Google Maps."

seems good if people in your occupation value geographical diversity in experiences (e.g., if you want to get a job as a travel photographer or international spy) ... not so useful if you're applying for software positions, though

As a proof of concept, this is interesting. For fields in which having experience in different cultures is important, the visual of the world map is really useful.

I could imagine someone applying for a teaching position using this résumé approach and impressing their potential employer.

For the next iteration, non-truncated location descriptions would be needed.
