Very Spatial indicates that the Cartography blog just completed a 9 part series on the state of online mapping: intro, Google Local, Map24, Maporama, MapQuest, MSN Maps, McNally, Yahoo! Maps and summary. From the summary: "Some offer better directions than others but, for the most, there is little separating them but appearances and useability. Appearances are often a matter of taste - something that Maporama has recognized with its plethora of map style options. Useability is essential when the task is to offer quick maps and directions. In this area Google Maps / Local does well. The single search box is ideal - no clicking on dropdown boxes to select a country or tabbing to the next box to complete the field."
