#6 Google Maps

I enjoyed using Google Maps and I searched for my home, workplace, nearby shopping centre and the venue of a forthcoming volleyball match.

I added a comment to my workplace and searched for directions from my workplace to home. I discovered that one route was about 5km shorter than the one that I take. However, the freeway enables me to complete the journey in a quicker time.

I noted that one of the directions was not accurate and this would make me a little cautious of soley relying on Google Maps for directions.

Google Maps is an excellent resource for locating places and finding out some brief information about them. They also enable you to compare the location of similar places such as a cafe or doctor.
