You can use Google Static Maps to plot a point. The only thing that you need to build is an URI maker.

Link to Google Static Map API:

code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/staticmaps/

Take a look at an example:

http://maps.google.com/maps/api/staticmap?center=Brooklyn+Bridge,New+York,NY&zoom=14&size=512x512&maptype=roadmap &markers=color:blue|label:S|40.702147,-74.015794&markers=color:green|label:G|40.711614,-74.012318 &markers=color:red|color:red|label:C|40.718217,-73.998284&sensor=false&key={MAPS_API_KEY}

Also you can refer to this project to learn more about using Google Static Maps:

Please Note: You will need to register for Google Map Key to work with this.
