TipCar
TipCar is a Brazilian car pooling website. Users of the site can offer and find rides quickly and easily.
The home page of TipCar features a cool animated Google Map which features profile pictures and short messages of people looking to share car journeys. The map animates through each message with some nice map rotation and map tilting between messages. You can see the animation effects in the video above.
I'm pretty sure that the site also uses Google Maps to help users find and display car journeys. Unfortunately my Portuguese wasn't adequate enough to navigate to that part of the site.

Yes, you are completely right. I've used Maps API V2 for inputing users journey and a very interesting and simple API for the animation you`ve talked about: http://code.google.com/p/mapbridge/
basically, it's a javascript bridge for the GMaps Flash API. Any, doubt, don`t hesitate to ask on our 'Fale Conosco' (talk with us). :)
