Amazing! I was looking for a map with directions and my typical route is to go to Google and look for results in MapQuest or Yahoo Maps. Today, however, the results at Google were much different. Without really looking, I instinctively clicked on the map link and I was taken to Google Maps which absolutely blew me away!
Google's new map feature is remarkable. The maps are crisp and clear and you can actually smooth-scroll through the entire map. Somehow the entire map is dynamic and loads data from the server instantly.
