Oooh damn... that's quite handy. It remembers the area and from there it's just click and click.

If you use just the google map and type in like "Pizza Atlanta" it does the same thing.

Yeah dude, I think it is a bit old. It's okay, something I discovered yesterday was the built in Calculator. I was searching for a inch to cm convertor, and Google did it for me

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q...=Google+Search

I love how they keep on adding new features.

I think the calc has always been around. It is a neat feature though, I use it all the time if I'm surfing, if on IRC I use my egg.

Google has most everything these days it seems. That new "facts results" thing is neat if you were writting a paper or something. For example "population of NY state" gives you:
New York
Population: 18,976,457 ; 3rd, 12/00
According to http://www.50states.com/newyork.htm
