It's amazing how detailed these maps are, and also a bit scary! I can see my house, cars parked on the street outside, even my rubbish bins - not very aesthetically pleasing, but certainly realistic.
Google Maps is really useful if you need to find your way round an unfamiliar place or for directions to a particular spot. A slight drawback is that satellite imagery can be patchy for some areas (I wasn't able to see Philip Island in close detail) and images can date quite quickly.
Overall, it's easy to use, but somehow doesn't seem as friendly as looking through Melways !
