Google adds new Beta Map Feature called Treasure Maps
For all you treasure hunters out there, Google has added a new feature to Maps. Treasure Maps is still in beta and can be accessed by opening maps and then clicking on the Treasure icon in the upper right corner.
This would be a great activity for kids and would be a great add-on for those of you who do geocaching. For street view, Treasure uses a spyglass to help you search for areas of possible treasure. April Fools |

Ha! Love it! And maybe it's because I haven't had enough coffee yet, but the pop up in the sidebar tells you to "Take care when unfolding the map to avoid ripping it" and that just made me giggle.
