I actually do this on the player view (the monitor hooked into
my RW) - it works fairly well actually when I have the party do a Nacht Und Nebel operation in a building or some such thing.
The players tell me where their characters are going, I move the pins and they can see it on the screen and everybody have the same picture regarding where they are.
I then use
Fog of World (TM) to show what they can see (taking into accounts corners, massive furniture and light).
It actually works surprisingly well for something that was not really intended to be used that way.
Now, if only we could get pins in different colours and shapes :-)
