Google Maps – reroute trip on the fly

June 29, 2007 by Paul Spoerry Leave a Comment

Google Maps lets you set intermediary points in your route and automagically adjusts the directions to the new conditions! Cool hu?Â You just have to drag the blue line to change its shape.

For example, after getting the directions from Mountain View to Palo Alto, I could change the route to pass through Stanford.

You can also add multiple points in the sidebar and build complex trips.
