Hi!
In Google Maps API v2 we can set to marker an option bouncy:true. It adds to marker eye-candy ability - after dragging this marker, it is bouncing.
Is it possible to do in API v3 ?

I just had a quick look at the API v3 spec for Markers - it doesn't look like the 'bouncy' option is available right now but I wouldn't be surprised to see this get implemented into the v3 API at some point - it's still in Beta and bound to change quite a bit.
If you really wanted the behavior in a V3 Map now you could tie an event to the 'dragend' method on the Marker Object. Have the function called alter the anchor point of the MarkerImage object - check out the MarkerImage object in the API too.

First thing I made before I wrote this post was reading this API Ref. ;)Your idea is nice. In fact this bahaviour is not worth time which I should spend on writing this in current project but it is good to know this way of solution. ;)

Well, I was looking for a way for implementing bouncy markers in V3 of google maps so that if we are showing a cluster of markers, the currently selected marker should be visible clearly.
We used the z-index property of the marker to set the z-index of the current marker at a relatively higher value than the rest.
Hope this helps.
