TutorZ.com Integrates GoogleMaps 3.0 to Improve Usability of its Online Service

Los Angeles, California, July 19th, 2012 – TutorZ.com, a leading nation-wide tutoring referral service now supports GoogleMaps 3 as to previously version 2.  Version 3 of Google Maps is faster, slicker and more applicable both to traditional browsers and to mobile devises.

GoogleMaps 3 provides numerous features for manipulating maps which makes identifying of the tutors’ location easy and quick. These maps display the location of the tutors in their respective tutoring profiles, e.g. algebra tutor in Port Hueneme, CA.  The new map zooms in an out smoothly, supports satellite and terrain view.  The icon in the center represents a tutor and features a drop shadow. Holding your mouse over this tutor brings up a title such as “Tutor James in Los Angeles, CA”. Google’s obligatory mentioning of its copyright and terms of use links are less obtrusive.  Clicking on the Google link opens up a large-scale version of the map.  The coolest feature, however, is to drag the observer icon into the street of the tutor to switch to the actual street view.  Now a student can familiarize himself with the place of tutoring to quicker get to his destination.
