Google Maps is not just for looking up directions and "coffee". It gets more interesting when you can use it for some sort of business intelligence experiments with Google's location data. Let me know what you think.

yeah, I bloggged about it last year, but thought of sharing on this community since I only joined recently. Even last year it seemed like it existed for a while. Did you find other interesting use cases of exploring their location data? I'd like to see some way of doing some sort of location analytics based on all the places they already have on there.
