Yahoo! Maps Beta

2005-11-04 1 min read Web marco
Did you try the new [Yahoo! Maps](http://maps.yahoo.com/beta)? It’s aimed squarely at Google Maps, and it’s really a neat solution.

Flash based where Google prefers AJAX, Yahoo! Maps is fast, accurate, and has such nice gimmicks as:

  • drag and drop of locations to the “Directions” area
  • multiple locations for way points
  • finds places of interest along a route, not just near a point
  • live traffic cams

All in all, a huge success for Yahoo!
