Chapter 20
Maps
Mapping on your iPod touch is very convenient and pretty amazing. As we explore the power of the Maps app in this chapter, you'll see how to find your location on a map and get directions to just about anywhere. You'll also learn how to switch between the Standard, Satellite, and Hybrid views. You'll also see how, if you need to find the best route to somewhere, you can check out the traffic using the Show Traffic button in Maps options. If you want to find the closest pizza restaurant, golf course, or hotel to your destination, that's easy, too. And you can use Google's Street View right from your iPod touch to help you get to your destination. It is easy to add an address you have mapped to your contacts.
