How-To Let Google Maps Find Me

A few days ago, Zack Stern from PC World shared a few tips to enhance your googling. Amongst those tips is the ‘let Google Maps Find You’ tweak. Basically, instead of zooming in your location, or typing in your default location, with this tweak, you just click a link and the location-tracking technology takes 5 seconds to spot you nice and clear.

For those too lazy to follow the link, you need to download Greasemonkey, Mozilla Geode and Google Maps & Geode - Together At Last.

Once those scripts and add-ons are running in your browser, just go to Google Maps‘, and click on the ‘Current position’ next to the search button.

I really liked this trick, and felt like sharing it through Youtube, hence the video. Enjoy the creepy music :)
