Looks like it's up and running for us too.

http://maps.google.co.uk/

(Actually, looks like it covers both Britain and Ireland). The Insert Hyperlink button does not seem to work.

Glad that we've got it (and really hope satellite pics will get added later), but it still needs a bit of work. If you type in 'Coventry University' at the moment it shows you where Warwick University is (it's on the outskirts of Coventry, Coventry University is in the city centre).

It's actually really nice. Already plotted out my journey travelling from Glasgow to Broadstairs, Kent (I'm going in 3 hours time, and every map I have is ripped to pieces).

Although, where I live isn't labelled, but the street is there.
