Google Maps Cell Phone

Sunday, May 21, 2006

Google Maps is now available in beta for your cell phone in a condensed form. All you need to do is load www.google.com/gmm/ on your cell phone. Working very similar to the regular Google Maps you can view regular road maps and satellite imagery. This will be very useful on the move allowing you instant access to a map, directions and locations of local attractions and businesses directly on your cell phone.

Features of Google Maps for your cell phone include detailed step by step directions, integrated search results which point out local businesses and locations on the map, easily movable and dragable maps that let you zoom in and out and detailed satellite imagery. You can take a look at what Google Maps will look like on your cell phone by trying out the online demo here.
