Google Makes Their Mark on Cell Phones

Monday, July 31, 2006
Google Inc. has begun offering yet another new service, "Google Maps for Mobile." This new technology allows cell phone users to retrieve highway traffic data and is currently offered in 30+ larger metropolitan areas throughout the United States. Mobile phone users that have an activated Web Browser are able to choose a destination available from Google Maps. In turn, Google Maps calculates and displays the route with detailed directions and real-time traffic information for that area. The color key for highway conditions is as follows; Red areas indicate congestion, yellow/orange areas reflect slowdowns, and green indicates clear travel with no expected tie-ups.

Other features of this service include bird's eye view images of your selected destination, drag and zoom features that allow you to manipulate the map, and area business location and contact information. The free service can be accessed and downloaded via your cell phone's Web Browser at http://google.com/gmm.
