Blog: Cool Google Maps

OK, for those of you who don't remember from previous incarnation of my blog, I am an avid Google fan. Google Mail (GMail)? Check. Google Individual Homepage? Check. Frequent visitor to the bubbling Google Labs? Check. Another cool Google offering is Google Maps. I was a Yahoo! Maps user and used a few other sites as well, but Google Maps topped 'em all.

The next evolution were individuals messing about with the code for Google Maps to provide results based on all sorts of criteria. Apartment listings by city, crime stats by city, et al. Well, here's a cool new blog that offers cool Google Maps offerings titled, appropriately enough, Cool Google Maps. Go check it out!

Hi Kachup - as you have used both G and Y maps, I thought you might like this demo I made of Google and Yahoo Maps side by side, making it easy to compare the two based on their looks and performance.

Nice job, jonathan! Interesting how the different services offer minor difference in the details -- the name of a community park here, more detailed street names there. The Flash is a nice feature in one as well. Interesting...
