Does anyone have a recommendation of an on-line map for Australia? I'll be using it for looking up accomodations locations in city and estimating driving times. I've googled and found a several including the following; WhereIS, TravelMate, and MSN Mappoint. Does anyone have a favorite?

Thanks!

Hi Marta
Whenever we are going out and need to check how to get there, we usually use www.whereis.com.au
Sometimes the actual place is a little out, eg the restaurant/address may be a block further than the map shows. I haven't used the other ones though. Another couple of helpful sites we use are www.citysearch.com.au and www.sensis.com.au
We live in Melbourne and I haven't used them for info on Perth or Western Aus but they may help in your planning.
Good luck!

Hi Marta, I just read about another online map. http://maps.google.com/ Kind of fun to zoom right in on your house.
Cheers

Thanks Robyn. I'll take a look at these. So it sounds like Google is working fine for Melbourne. I took a look at it for Holland and they didn't have a lot of detail. They do have my house covered fine. Smile
