Very nice maps, but they are WWAAAYY too small! Need to expand the map for easier viewing.

Is it my web browser?We're sorry Google Maps isn't working properly for you. It should work for all Internet Explorer browsers 5.5 and later. You can also use Google Maps on a Mac, Windows or Linux computer with the Mozilla browser. If you're using one of these browsers and still can't get Google Maps to work, please let us know by clicking the "Send Feedback" link on the Google Maps page and filling out the feedback form. Check that out - being they are still in Beta (test) mode with this, if you continue to have problems, send them some Feedback. It will definitely help improve their system once they release it as a final product.

It's working for me fine under Firefox...

[Psychobroker]

Very cool

They are working on supporting Safari so if you're using that browser it won't work yet. Regardless of your browser type, you must have JavaScript enabled to use Google Maps. Hope this helps

looks cool, but pretty inaccurate for the one thing we looked up. It put Napanee on the Ottawa River.

Thanks for the tip. Tried it in Opera for Linux but just got a tan rectange, nothing else. Works fine in Firefox. Tried it in Konqueror but got an incompatible browser warning. I then realized that Opera was set to identify itself as MSIE, so that's probably why I didn't get any warning with it.

[Sputnik]

B'ah! She likes to think she's from "Torona" (aka Toronto).

[Atomb]

better to think she's from there than that place up there with all the hot air coming out of the green buildings....oh..and the horrible hockey team!

Google Maps adds Safari, Opera support.http://www.macworld.com/news/2...x.php

Google maps now has satellite photos! Very cool

[rasermon]

Thanks Sputnik, that is very cool. I just wish you could zoom in closer.

[POLO]

Good link Very usefull And to you see their stock price=188.57$http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=googAnybody interrested to buy some share?

[redlava]

I like how you can just drag and drop it where ever you want. With Yahoo I think you had to hit the arrow button and then wait for it to load the page again. The satellite image is pretty cool, too bad it doesn't have very good resolution. Wonder if they could ask the CIA really nice to use a Keyhole satellite and read some newspapers from space.
