The description of Send to Google Maps - Play With New Friends
Sends the current text selection with 1-Click to Google Maps.
Send to Google Maps allows you to send a selected address or POI on any website directly to Google Maps. You no longer need to
1.) copy the address or POI
2.) open a new tab
3.) enter http://maps.google.com
4.) paste the address
5.) press the search button
All these steps are done by "Send to Google Maps".
Therefore the extension adds an item to the Context Menu if text is selected. By right clicking on the selected text the context menu opens and you can click on "Send address to Google Maps".
A new tab will be opened and automatically search for the address on Google Maps.
And if you need directions:
Just go to the options page and enter up to five favorite addresses. They will be available in the context menu to easily get directions.
Also, you can select company names, names of sights and a lot more on any webpage to get directions to. Just try it out! It's not limited to addresses only...
You need at least Chrome version 18 to install and use this extension.
