harriman at google maps - soooo cool
harriman at google maps - try it! what is so neat is that the map is navigable by holding down the right button on your mouse and sliding it in the direction you'd like. zoom features and other navigation aids show up as a small tool on the left side of the screen, and map re-draws (at least on my computer) were very fast. i love it!
