Google has just pushed a pretty nice update to Google Maps that seems to focus mostly on Places. They’ve added the ability to upload a photo of a Place from your device. You’ll also get the ability to add a place on the go if it doesn’t exist in Google’s directory. Finally, they’ve added My Places which allows you to save your favorite places and view places you’ve recently viewed. Pretty decent stuff overall. Grab it in the market now.
