Your Daily Dose of 2.0: GoogleMaps Mashups

13 Must-See Google Maps offfers some pretty neat-o things. Wikimapia is a wiki-based map that lets you annotate places. While taking a virtual journey back to Edmonton, I not only found my parents' house, I also found that someone had annotated the little shortcut through the woods that, if you're up for a spritely scamper through the woods, you can take if you miss you bus at the corner and want to catch it on the other side .

FindByClick lets you find bookstores and coffee places; add Trader Joe's and I'm set. WalkJogRun lets you explore routes and distances for walks, jogs and run; Chicago Crime lets you search and view various crime stats and MultiCherry lets you track sunrises and sunsets around the world.
