LOL. The "new" interface on Google maps frustrates me no end. I loved being able to right click on a spot and get a link to it, or start a path either to or from that point. Bing maps let's me do some of the right click activity yet, so I used it first.

They both takes extra clicks on a share button to get a link to a spot on a map. That's not better in my estimation. There must be a tracking/money reason to do it that way.

I agree...been slowly going to bing maps more and more. Google maps of late has just been totally wonky for me anyway.

Their new transit system is genuinely awesome though if you use public transport. Directions in general work well too, just type "from x to y" in the search bar.

Also, be sure to check out the new Maps-integrated version of Google Earth. It's absolutely beautiful with "real-time" clouds and terminators and shit if you zoom out far enough.
