Exploring Google maps and exploiting them to the best... :)

I'm one of the hard core fan of Google and love to explore everthing that comes in google applicatons.
Here i would introduce some of the new features of the Google maps.

For the guys who are new to google maps,Google maps is one of the famous google application through which you can view the map of any region of the world for free.
You can see the maps, find the routes, spot the locations of intrest.
You can also draw your own routes,mark your important places.
Also you can share you map with your friends and most important of all .. you can do all this for free with just a simple google account.

When you are in the google maps web page and after you have panned to a place or have some places/route marked in the Map you can then click on the link icon which gives you two things.
1.URL link to this map so that you can share with ur friends.
eg:http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=surnida.bhaskar&sll=17.37161,78.563232&sspn=0.454794,1.028595&ie=UTF8&cd=1&ll=17.424029,78.52478&spn=0.909317,2.05719&z=9
2.IFrame Html code which you can embed in your html pages as below.
eg:
Sample Code :

So what are you waiting for ... go to Google Maps now and exploit it at your best... :)
