Shortest string one can type in googles home page to have a certain latitude longitude come up in maps.google?

When I type in 36.007104,-114.76387 it dosnt bring up a map just searches for those numbers.Shortest string one can type in googles home page to have a certain latitude longitude come up in maps.google?
If you want the map integrated into the web results like when searching for zip codes, you're out of luck. I'm sure Google will eventually add the feature, but not anytime soon.



You can however search Google Maps directly by bookmarking "http://maps.google.com/maps?q=%s" and creating a keyword like gm. So "gm coordinates" in the address bar would give you the map. I don't know if Internet Explorer supports this, but Firefox does. Opera handles it through the search preferences menu. Alternatively, you can also use Yahoo search like so: "!maps coordinates".Shortest string one can type in googles home page to have a certain latitude longitude come up in maps.google?
