Google Maps! (It Kicks Yahoo! Maps in the Groin)

Google Maps is out in beta, and it is remarkable. Impressive. Addictive. Slick. Extremely consumer-friendly. Time does not permit a full review at this moment, but I will post one within a day. In the meantime, go and play.

SEW announcement (nothing special)
SEW review (Gary Price. Gary notes that map zooming cannot be accomplished by simple clicking on the map, but he might have missed a crucial fact: double-clicking on a map point reorients the map around that point. Yahoo! Maps does the sasme thing with a single click, but redraws the entire page to do so. Go and be amazed at the smoothly sliding map reorientation at Google.)
