Useamap – Tinyurl for Google Maps

By Vivek Puri

Useamap offers yet another small piece of functionality that can make you life tiny bit easier. Instead of sending in the extra longish map permalink from Google Maps, you can now use Useamap to give your location a name. Just click on your desired location on the map and assign the location a name like – MyHome to get your easy to remember and share URL – http://Useamap.com/MyHome. Cool! Of course if MyHome is already taken, you need to look for alternative name. Useamap does few more things than just click and save. You can add detailed driving direction, embed the map on your blog, enable commenting on your maps, and search for maps created by users with a particular description that gets more onto the social side of things. Now let’s see how long it takes for Google to get the feature in their repository.
