I think that Google maps is one of the best free services Google offer. It is great when planning a trip overseas - you can type in the location of hotels, etc. to find out if it is near a highway, close to the attractions, public transport, etc. And if you plan ahead, you can print out directions on how to get to the airport, train station, your accommodation, etc.
I am looking forward to the virtual street tour that Google are trialling - you could then see exactly what the street is like where you might be staying. How often does the reality of the hotel not match the description!
I have added an aerial shot of Fairhaven which I mentioned earlier in my blog. The only think I can't seem to do is get rid of the text box. I went to 'Customise and preview embedded map' and got rid of the text, but it still appears on my page - any suggestions?
