Activity#6, Google Maps

I’ve used Google maps before just to find the locations of places around the city. Another feature of Google maps is that you can actually create your own customised maps with descriptive text, videos, photos and rich text. This map can either be private or listed publically. You’ll need to sign in to your Google account to do this.
You can also draw the route from one place to another and include the driving directions. It even gives you a time and distance estimate. Very cool!

Here is a little map I created.
