Google Maps Now Allows You To Measure Distances

Want to know the exact distance between two points? Google Maps will now tell you.

Simply right-click your starting point on the map and choose “Measure distance”, then click again to see the distance between those two points. You can repeat the process to check multiple distances, or to draw odd sketches. If you’re still sticking with the classic Google Maps interface, you can also enable this feature via Maps Labs.
