First impression: pretty darn cool.<\/p>\n

The maps are more detailed (even in the simple map view), getting info about stuff just by clicking on a street is amazing, there’s a carousel of images from interesting places within the map viewing area, the map updates as you click on certain locations, there are street view previews when you click on a street location, you can favorite locations, it will update traffic info in real time…it’s become a ton more useful and interactive.<\/p>\n
