Answer 1

Maps Engine Lite (Beta) is a tool which allows you to design and save your own custom maps. In order to make use of it, you'll need to have a Google account and be logged in.

For example, have you tried to embed a newer Google map into a web page? The reliable old "link" button is nowhere to be found!

A simple example is here

Answer 2

Those pins are called markers in the gmaps API.

This example does what you want: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/marker-simple

You can use normal Google maps to find out the coordinates for your place by right-clicking on it and choosing "what's here" (works in chrome and safari at least).
