Two Google Maps Hacks
Via eHub, I came across a couple of nifty Google Maps mashups:
- Public Loos – As you might expect, this site provides you with a handy guide to all the public washrooms in San Francisco. Ick. Presumably they loo-enable the rest of the world eventually.
- TripMojo – Search for a hotel name, and view it in a Google map. Here, for example, all a bunch of hotels which include the term ‘Pan Pacific’.
Both of these sites remind me of a common complaint I have about Google Maps hacks. They tend not to implement the “Link to this page” feature, which enables you to grab a hyperlink for an exact map view, including zoom level, map style, and so on.
