Very nice. We did something very similar some years ago, http://notamap.com , with the idea of making it very easy to save maps with notes and embed them on your web. No sign-up, no database storing your data: everything is encoded in the URL you keep. A pity we never really polished it, nor tried to promote it. It has a small but faithful user base.
this is nice, how about letting the user drag the pin around in case the result isn't quite accurate enough (in my case it got my city, but what if i wanted to link to my house?)
I like it. (my unsolicited advice) depending on how you are storing the data, you should let the user pass a query string or something to the url that returns the raw lat long in json format as opposed to the actual map, that way you have this mini api for more advanced users.
