Live Local was updated today and now has traffic overlays for a few cities. (Watch the Seattle region turn red during the evening commute.) There are also other features people seem to be unaware of:

Middle-click and drag lets you zoom into a box.
Mouse scroll lets you zoom.
Business searches automatically update as you drag the map around, and you can search for multiple businesses at once.
When finding directions, you can choose the start and destination points by right-clicking on the map. You don't need addresses to find directions.

Plus it also has a neat Bird's Eye view. Bird's Eye Tourist has links to interesting bird's eye locations. I know this sounds like an advertisement, but I really do like Live Local. What do people think of it? [Edited by - mutex on May 25, 2006 4:39:48 AM]

I just discovered their Collections feature, which lets you make a list of places and your own notes to share with others.

Cool places I've visited. I've added pictures and more info links to some of the places. You can also get directions to them quite easily.

Seattle Asian restaurants

Anyone have a list of interesting places they'd like to share?
