Google Maps Remembers Your Address

Google's Maps team has implemented a little feature that has been present for a while in competing products like Windows Live Local - the ability to save locations.

Google Blog about the newest tweak they have routed to users. On Google Maps, users may now store a list of personal addresses. Having a free Google Account to login to is required to use the feature. The "Saved Locations" link at the top right of Google Maps takes the user to the stored list, where it may be edited as desired. As an extra convenience, Google Maps will auto-save every address one searches for through the service. Those locations can be labeled with a more personal designation, like "home" or "work" or "Batcave" perhaps. Google recognizes that some people may be more enamored with that feature than others, and allows for it to be disabled. Google's developers have been very keen on the auto-complete feature, last seen added to Tag: Add to Del.icio.us | Digg | Yahoo!
