Trying to find a chinese restaurant around my apartment and found the new features. Pretty kewl if you ask me.

-Multiple destinations
-UI changed a little

http://www.google.com/maps?f=d&hl=en&saddr=5575+Baltimore+Dr,+La+Mesa,+CA+91942+(P+G+King+Chinese+Cuisine)&daddr=5920+Fairmount+Ave,+San+Diego,+CA+92120+(Home+Depot)+to:2228+Fenton+Pky,+San+Diego,+CA+92108+(Archstone+Apartments)&sll=32.778795,-117.06703&sspn=0.055422,0.08008&ie=UTF8&z=13&om=1

This is a great addition! The destinations can be click-and-dragged around, too, to reorder them. I've waited long for this. Thanks Google, and keep up the good work!

This is really cool! GMaps is the best- now who would settle for mapquest, yahoo, or live? not me, that for sure :P

Very nice.

There's also a really subtle little grey triangle half way down the page between the map and the directions. Clicking it will hide your directions and 'full screen' the map.

A little more here:

It's new, but not as new as the multi-direction feature.

They seem to be doing quite a lot with Google Maps, recently.
