It is once again in direct competition with a Microsoft Product, Streets and Trips. Yes, you cannot access it on the go, but for routes that you take very often, instead of charting it again and again, it is much easier to store and reference.

Drawing lines, posting travel guides, etc are all added bells and whistles typical of a map package.

But I think this is a neat personalization from Google.

Watch it dissapear in a few months after they realize people don’t have a need for drawing crazy lines on maps.
