Google Maps Australia

Australians have been waiting for some time for Google Maps covering their geography to have the same functionality as the U.S. and on Feb 6 (tomorrow in the U.S. but today over there), they do!

Google today unveiled Google Maps Australia, an online mapping service providing Australian business listings and driving directions that are accessible from a PC or mobile phone.

Until now, the website simply provided flat street maps and satellite images, but the upgrade today means it now offers virtually identical functionality to its US counterpart.

The article also notes that’s Microsoft has been offering the functionality for a year and a half.
