Quick way to get the lat long of the center of google maps

Add this as a bookmark

javascript:void(prompt('(lat,lng)', window.gApplication.getMap().getCenter()));

If you are using firefox, and you better be, go to the properties of the bookmark and give it a keyword. I gave mine m

When you have the map location centered:

1. press f6 to highlight the url
2. type in your keyword and hit enter
3. CTRL C to copy
4. Escape to close the prompt

Thanks to The Distant Librarian for his improved javascript that made copying the lat/lng easier.
