I can find my iPhone

I can find my iPhone
Sure enough the mobilme can find my iPhone. It's actually kind of freaky how well it does. It centers on the correct end of my house. And then I can make it twiddle some music. That's peachy but I want to do more.

I am going to be in a kayak challenge paddling 21 miles around Cape Ann. I am telling a certain number of people who will ridicule me mercilessly if I chicken out or bail half way through the race. But I want them to see the little iPhone dot of me making my way around the Cape. They can go to the proper breakwater at the right time and scream catcalls out at me or drag me out of the coffee shop if I stop in Rockport.

But how do I do this? I can give my wife the keys to my mobilme account and she can watch where I am. This will be very cool for all my training runs too. If I get stuck on Thacher Island she will know exactly where. But I have searched high and low for software that would patch the GPS signal out so anyone that day could tune into my web page and see where I am.

Anyone know if this is possible? No rush, I have 162 days, 11 hours, 42 minutes. If you figure out how I can do it I will give you the URL and you can laugh at how slow I am going too.

I don't know, but there has to be a way to link the find my iPhone result page display in real time.

It's real time and all. It updates every few minutes. But you can only see it inside mobilme. I need to export the gps long and lat out to a google map page of my choosing.
