Google Maps Adds Landmarks/POIs
It was announced on the Google Lat Lon Blog.
TechCrunch has a write up with some insight from Eric Shonfeld about how this might play out:
And as you zoom in more places become visible. At some point the map could become pretty crowded, Google hopefully is looking at search history and click behavior to surface the most important places. Each place on the map becomes a visual search result. I like the direction this is going.
Josh Lowentien at C|net notes: “One thing to note is that the new mapping tiles do not yet appear on mobile devices like the Google Maps apps for iPhone and Android.”
