I don't know if this is new... but it is the first time I have seen it... But google Maps has a "Text View" that basically removes the map (shows a much smaller version) Interesting... not horribly useful for me |
I'm not seeing this.. Screenshot perhaps? |
I saw this a couple of days ago too – it essentially switches to a 'local search' but with normal Google Search results rather than the map view. |
Here's a screen shot (hope this works):

Otherwise it's here: picasaweb.google.com/reto.meie ... |
I'm seeing this too, might be new... here are two screenshots for a search for [google hq]:

Yeah i can see it now.. I think it's new. :/ |
I saw that too, I even wrote an article on Zorgloob about it and I think Ionut did the same |
It is just like the old Google Local interface! |
Is there any way to search from a text interface from the start? Thanks |
Yeah I've definately read an article about it before |
Juan – looks like you can go to maps.google.com/maps?view=text to search directly from text mode. Might be an unpublished feature. |
maps.google.com/maps?output=ht ... is for the browsers that don't support JavaScript. |
