Google Maps for Mobile

I have used Google Maps for Mobile for quite some time and have blogged about it in the past.  The team at Googlehas set up a new feature that I will LOVE.  Now instead of having to know the address of a business or restaurant, you can just type in “Coltons” in the destination field and get directions to the door step of the restaurant or business of your choice.

Technology really is amazing these days.
