Found this post from Google Blog today. It is quite neat. I was often using MSN Mappoint as my default map searching but this is quite different. I will use this alternatively as I found some streets and addresses haven't been updated on MSN, at least some from the city I am living, which is Vancouver.
The following map shows the direction how to get to my home from my work place, looks quite stupid (seems take 10 miles more than the normal way I was taking) but maybe faster even though I doubted because crossing the Lion Gates Bridge is not easy at the rush hour. Well, but it is still good because people always needs the map and direction when they need to go to the place they don't know or aren't familar with.
