Did you mean? Google Maps

Did you mean? Google Maps


New yellow markers indexed to the sidebar help narrow down places of interest.
You can also get directions to each one.
Lots of 'GIS' going on underneath to do this.


Now you can find points of interest and do not need to have an end address/location to get map directions.

Driving Directions? But sometimes quicker to walk.
(red line would be shortest route to walk and still uses Teleatlas data)
**red line added by mapperz

Suggestion:
Would be handy in large cities to have a 'walk to' option as you can see in Leicester Square you get sent around the one way system. But Leicester Squaree is pedestrian only and would take only a few minutes to walk.
If driving you might miss the show.

Funky new feature from Google Maps - Drag Directions...on the fly.

Here's what Mapperz likes about it.


Now if you grab the blue directions line on the map


Google then re-calculates live on the fly new route.

Try it out

Also when you right click on the blue directions route you can specify a new destination stop.
