Google announced today My Maps, a new feature of Google Maps to create and personalize your maps with lines, shapes and placemarks. You can see the new My Maps tabs in Google maps beside results. For those who find the API difficult to use, no worries, you can now play with Google maps on the fly and create amazing maps of your trips or anything you want.
