MSN Maps
I’m pointing out MSN Maps this week because of how clear, clean, and crisp MSN Maps look on a monitor and when printed on paper. Overview maps are available for the entire World. Street level maps (accessed by entering as little as a city name) are available for Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Spain, Switzerland, U.K. and U.S. Make sure to take a look at the largest maps available. To access them simply click the third box at the top of the map labeled “Map Size”. Here are a few examples.
Remember, you’re able to zoom in and out for more or less detail. don’t forget to expand the maps to the large size. Looking good!
