Google makes maps mightier
Tuesday April 12th, 2005
A while back I wrote about Google's new map site and its acquisition of satellite mapping service Keyhole. In typical blazing-fast Google fashion, the company has now married those two services in the latest update of Google Maps. The site now lets you not only view a satellite photo of whatever location you're mapping, but it also overlays the recommended route on the satellite image when you get directions. The satellite images aren't as detailed as you'll find on Keyhole, but they don't really need to be. It's really cool."
