Sexy new Google Maps feature
It was a big deal when Google Maps released its satellite photo feature. Now, you can have a “Hybrid” view of the maps, which will overlay a semi-transparent Map view over the Satellite view. It’s wonderful for directions, especially in the step-by-step view, and it’s really keen to see how the mapped roads fit in with the physical landscape of the area in the larger normal map view.
I’m not sure how long this feature has been around, but it’s ultra-cute.
