Curious How the Various Internet Maps Compare?

One of my 'must reads' each day is TechCrunch.com.  I listen to this blog's author, Michael Arrington, when he appears on the Gillmor Gang.  If you're curious about keeping up with all the new Internet business ideas that are getting some airplay in Silicon Valley then you'll want to stay in tune with Arrington's blog.

Here is a snippet from an article on "Comparing the Mapping Services":

... As popular as Google is, it is not the most well trafficked map service. It is virtually tied with Yahoo Maps (and the new Yahoo Maps beta product which we reviewed here). ComScore says that Google Maps had 19.1 million unique visitors in March, whereas Yahoo had 20 million. Both were dwarfed by Mapquest, with a whopping 46.4 million unique visitors in March, more than Yahoo and Google combined.

In addition to Google Maps, Yahoo Maps and Mapquest, two others, Ask Maps and Microsoft Windows Live Local, also have compelling offerings.

We looked at all five of the current map services and examined their features and performance.
