New Google Maps

Ok, so it's not a *huge* change from the previous version, but it seems Google Maps got a facelift, today. I haven't seen hardly any press on this as of yet. Below are some other changes I've noticed. Some of these may be simply things I didn't notice until now:

  1. The pretty new "tabs" under the search bar for Search the map, Find businesses, and Get directions.
  2. More useful instructions when finding places, such as "by the Perimeter Mall" in the first result of this search.
  3. You can now use the mouse wheel and buttons, as reported in this digg article.

If there's other things I've missed, please comment and let us know!
