There’s a new feature

July 23, 2005 by Michael Boyle

There’s a new feature

at Google Maps: there is now a “Hybrid” view available. It’s a satellite photo but with roads labelled and highways and such colour-coded. Very slick – and it works again in Safari.

Tags: Google, Google Map

    I saw the same feature demo’ed by the MS map team on channel 9 a few weeks back. Mind you, I don’t think MS’s product is released. Or free.
