Mapping applications on the web are one of the greatest things ever invented. Enter a location and you can get aerial views, directions, transit, traffic, etc. I used to use MapQuest, but I found I like the versatility of Google Maps. Plus, I can see my car parked in the back of my house.
One interesting website I found was googlelsightseeing.com. It has a lot of different interesting things like oddly shaped buildings, crazy landscapes, and "the Whitehouse"
In Maximizer, you can map directions to your prospects' location by going to Web > Draw a Map, using Google Maps or another mapping application. Maximizer will fill in the address information. You can do one of three things with the address:
- Map the address only
- Map a travel route from the current address (which you would fill in) or
- Map a travel rout from the selected to current address (which you have to fill in).
You can also Map directions using MaxMobile or Maximizer Wireless Access on your mobile device.
Mapping locations goes beyond finding your way from point A to point B. Once you have the location, you can find the nearest Starbucks for a coffee, restaurant for wining and dining, or the nearest bus stop for a quick get-away.
