Gmail Maps Viewing (GMaps)

Last couple of days i was doing a re-search on GMaps. it;s to enable the routing maps on the windows descktop applicate it self.

only think that you have to do is to pass the correct argements.. But still I cound;t find how to use the birdview.. if you know let me know..

Destination Address
+++++++++++++++

Its address is, roughly, 2233 S. Columbus Blvd.
http://maps.google.com/?q=2233+s+columbus+blvd+philadelphia&z=1

Location wise
+++++++++
I can be more accurate with latitude and longitude. 39.918 N, 75.135W. So this link is even better:
http://maps.google.com/?sll=39.918,-75.136

Parameters are there besides "q" (the regular Google query parameter), "z" (zoomlevel) and "sll" (latitude and longitude)

From : To
+++++++

"q" param denotes "from" in front of the first, and "to" in front of the second, and it will give you the directions between the two addresses.

Example: http://maps.google.com/maps?q=from+2233+s+columbus+blvd+philadelphia+to+1600+pennsylvania+ave,+washington,+dc&z=8
