Google Maps in Address Book

Paul Westbrook | 03 December, 2005 20:53

I guess I have had a pretty old version of this plugin installed.  The latest version of the Google Maps Address Book plugin will, in addition to showing a map of an address, will also show driving directions between two address.  The plugin lets you select a address, if a given card has multiple addresses.

GoogeFill is a plugin for Address Book that will automatically retreive an address from a phone number, and put it into the Address Book card.

One thing about condos compared to hotel room, is that they don't tend to offer "high speed" internet access.  Since I want to be able to continue to work while there, I was looking into ways that I could high speed access.
