Google Maps: Dragged along the road

Wow, have you noticed the new improved Google Maps? I guess they haven’t communicated about it again since i haven’t read any related blog posts yet, but last weekend when i was looking for directions to meet my friend camille with my bike for brunch, the map-app was more sensitive than ever to my 2-fingers scrolling on my mousepad to zoom in and zoom out à la Google Earth, and most importantly, i could drag any segment of the itinerary to adapt it to my need and the entire path would be automatically recalculated. I’ve always wanted a similar functionality since i don’t have a car and don’t have to follow the one-way directions, or to avoid a busy street. Oh man, those Google guys, they’re really making a great job at showing me their love!
