Google has been rumored to be working on a new version to Google Maps<\/a> and last night the world stumbled across a sign-up page for it, giving the rumor more\u00a0credence. With this discovery, we now have an idea of what Google has in store for us with\u00a0the new version. Even though the sign-up page was removed just as quickly as it went up, some pictures and information was still gathered from it. In the pictures, we can see that\u00a0Google’s new version of Maps is taking on the Google Now card look, as well as improving areas of functionality.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The new features include a, “smarter search box”<\/em> for all your quarries, there is also a feature that allows you to compare\u00a0travel\u00a0options, to find the best route for your destination. One of those options is the Flight Search, which helps you find a flight, ticket prices, and travel times. Google has also added some of the features from Earth in to the new version of Maps, giving it a 3D look in some areas. I wonder if the recent addition of Street View in Google Earth<\/a> has a connection here because there was no mention if these features will be coming to mobile, however that is always subject to change.<\/p>\n

I’m sure all of this will be announced today during the Keynote\u00a0<\/span>at I\/O today, which can<\/span>\u00a0be watched live here<\/a>\u00a0<\/span>as it happens starting at 9am PST. Our own Rob Nazarian<\/a> is there to bring you the news as it happens. For now you can check out the pictures below for a better look of what’s most likely coming.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
