AskJeeves: Search Maps & Directions
We feel that it is the best Maps product in the market for building an itinerary for a journey, through differentiated tools like draggable pushpins, right-click to add locations, the ability to add up to 10 locations, aerial photography views, an open/close slider, and the "Play" button. There are also some cool hotkey functions AND the opportunity to purchase photos of any aerial view by clicking "Get Photo". In the future we'll use Maps as a platform for many more products, such as our next rev on Local. Stay tuned.
