A new mapping service has now gone live on YellowPages.com that allows users looking up businesses to map their locations using Microsoft’s Virtual Earth, according to this press release. You can see maps, satellite views and low-angle “birds-eye” views, where available, get directions, and even search by distance from a particular address, which is nice. The search function feels a bit wonky and I had trouble finding anything with birds-eye available, but note that, as the press release read, “In March 2006, the YELLOWPAGES.COM Network reached 27.3 million monthly unique users.” Who will now be mapping things via MS Virtual Earth.
