Honey, They killed the Yahoo! India Maps Print Page!

“The print page is dead”. Put your hands together for in-context printing.
Yahoo! India Maps print page just became better, faster and a lot cleaner. Fancy this, you are new to Bangalore and are staying with a friend in Indiranagar. You have heard much about the new Lido Mall, and the Fabulous seating at the Fame Cinemas Multiplex. You are in a hurry to catch the movie. Now visit Yahoo! India Maps at http://in.maps.yahoo.com, search for “100 feet
road indiranagar to lido mall” and click on the “print” link in the left hand corner.

A helpful pop up shows that your print will need 2 sheets. Now, click on Print and you are all set to enjoy pop corn at the movie. The Map is also in wide screen (landscape), so what you see is indeed what gets printed. The Printout also gives useful tips on the distance, approximate time taken and local auto rickshaw fare, all of which will aid you in making sure you pay only what you need to pay to that friendly Auto driver

Just that Simple
