Google Maps on your iPod

Monday, November 12, 2007

I am filing this under helpful "Tech Blasts from the Past". Even though this how to was originally posted in 2005 its new to me and possibly other folks. I know that for students traveling abroad or just perhaps going to college in a new city this might be useful.

Imagine all those iPods out there that we are carrying around and then imagine loading subway maps, street maps etc... in them for easy reference. How many of you have gone to at one time Map quest or Google Maps to get directions to somewhere you needed to be and printed them off only to find as you are searching that you either did not get as much of the map as you needed or even that the step by step directions you printed out are off somewhat. Well if you have a video or photo iPod you can load those maps onto it at different zoom levels and have them for easy reference.

I happened upon the how-to HERE. This shows how to do this with a Mac and iTunes. I will keep looking for a how-to for PC's and post it here shortly.
