Google Maps Goes "Personal"

The new version of Google Maps will personalize and customize map detail for each user. 

When users set "Home" and "Work" locations, star favorite places, write reviews and share with friends, every Google Map instance automatically will include such details within the mapping experience. 

The new "carousel" gathers all Google Maps imagery in one spot enabling users to fly through cities, walk canyon trails, climb mountains, and even swim the oceans, Google says. 
And on a WebGL-enabled browser, like Google Chrome, the carousel includes the Earth view which directly integrates the 3D Google Earth images into maps.
