Online mapping is great. Even if i’m using GPS software i like to check out the route before hand so i’m not blindly driving around
I blogged a while ago about how i used a mixture of Multimap and Live Local Search depending on what i wanted to do.
This changed when Google Maps gave you the ability to drag your route around a customise it (i thought i’d blogged about that but i can’t find it!) and i use that 90% of the time
So where am i going with this?
press release from December last year annoucing the takeover
Old news now but it suprised me i’d hadn’t heard it sooner and i don’t quite understand what Microsoft gain from this as it’s pretty similar to Live Local.
The opinion on other sites is they are buying the user base……
Well i thought it was interesting anyway 🙂
