Google Maps Adds Terrains

gmaps-terrain.jpgGoogle Maps has added a saucy new terrain overlay to its already impressive view options. In addition to geographic terrain, this view also displays buildings in metropolitan areas à la Google Earth. You may also notice that the Hybrid view is now missing from the top row of buttons, but Hybrid view (which displays satellite imagery with street information overlaid) is now the default for Satellite view (though you can toggle the street information).
