Replacing Google Maps with Cloudmade map?

I'm trying to implement something like Paul Kulchenko's datamark:

and I was wondering if there was a way to replace the Google Map with a Cloudmade one. I realize now that there's Google's Styled Maps tool, but I'd like to know of a Cloudmade map working with Google Maps API classes.

Thank you, and Happy Holidays!

  • Google Maps lets you place your own custom tile overlays on top of (or instead of) the default tiles. See http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/overlays.html for documentation on this, or http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Google_Maps_Example for some OSM specific examples.
