Finding Your Way --Free Tool For Google Maps


I think technology is great but my GPS sometimes sends me on the long route to my intended destination.

So I usually check Google Maps before heading out for estimates and the like.

I found this FREE site that allows you to plot multiple addresses on Google Maps. (see http://gmaps.kaeding.name ) So if you have multiple places to go on a particular day, it allows you to visually see and plan out your route.

I also put all my 2008 customer addresses that I downloaded from my accounting software into this program. I was able to see geographically where my customers are located.


Enjoy!

It could be a good tool to Geo-Reference your customer referral list on a map for visual reference.

I'll try it out later tonight.

Thanks.
