 It appears that Frappr has rebranded themselves as "platial". Anyways I've
 created a map which you can access
 [http://platial.com/mapv/Tahoe/643701#/here]. Adding yourself/a pin to the
 map is as simple as clicking the "join" button and typing in the name of a
 city.

 The map can be embedded on a webpage.

 There are probably better solutions but this gets the job done....
