www.picasa.com in case anyone missed my post on raw-one.

Edit: Gross. Google maps is awful. Try Yahoo Maps. You can get a lot of information off of it, including where Sirhan Sirhan can buy Indian food near the white house.

Yeah but if you click the local search you can type in what you want to find.

Also you can click on the letter and it'll give you the info on that particular place like a phone number.

It seems it has trouble loading. It always leaves out a couple segments of the map.

It loads the large cities fine, but when you get to the more obscure parts of the map it doesnt seem to have the information at closer zoom levels.
