Rumor has it that Google plans to debut a redesigned Maps service at its annual I/O conference, next week. “If true, then Google is ditching [the] traditional sidebar altogether,”
TechCrunch reports, citing screenshots of a new Google Maps circulating around the Web. “Instead, the company may be putting greater emphasis on the map itself and shifting pertinent information
-- think location data, photos, and Zagat reviews -- to a series of cards that hover in the top left corner of the screen.”
