Among countless tools and applications that
Google® produces, there is the
Google® Maps application. It is clean, works great, loaded with features, and coolest of all gives you aerial imagery of the location you are looking for. Another great application that builds on top of the
Google® Maps program is
Google® Places. If you have searched for things on
Google® Maps, you have likely seen the pushpins that litter the map drawing your attention to relevant hits to your search.
Google® Places has provided this type of functionality to businesses so that they may provided the user with information about the business. Some of this information includes hours of operation, business logo, coupons and discounts, comments and ratings by past-customers, and much more. Here is a brief synopsis of what
Google® Places is and what it does.
