India's Answer To Google Maps

Ever since I first visited http://maps.google.com I always wanted that even there should be an Indian site like this, which people can used to locates roads, banks ATMs, hospitals, etc. with just a click of their mouse. Google used advanced an technology, so I thought that an Indian site would take some time till they launch something similar to this.
Well, to my surprise I found a site today which is like Google Maps. Although is far away from competing with Google Maps, still its a very good site for starters.
Visit it at http://www.mapmyindia.com/ and see how useful & worthy you find it.

fzkuMapmyIndia v-2007 is just like Google Maps/Yahoo Maps. In fact, even better, MapmyIndia is focused on India. Visit www.mapmyindia.com today.

If you want to see your house on a map (the street actually), visit MapmyIndia (http://www.mapmyindia.com)

This is an Indian company's initiative at creating an internet map site that will come up and do as much as Google and Mapquest has done. We're also adding an Indian twist to the things we do. Check out this concept called 'eLocation' MapmyIndia has introduced.

eLocation allows you to get maps and directions to a peron's place, and the cool thing is that it gives you the directions in the words of that person (take a left after you see a panwallah, go inside that gate...u know, how people explani directions in India).

Search for this sample elocation and you'll see what I mean. The id is: mapmyindia

Looking forward to your comments on the blog or through mail (my email address is: shashi@mapmyindia.com)

Thanks and hope you can enjoy India in much much more detail =)
