Not to be outdone by the excellent third-party Google Map hacks, Google has come out with a hack of their own. Google Ride Finder is an awesome application that uses GPS signals from taxis and plots them on the map.

Ride Finder is currently in beta testing, and only available in 12 cities in the U.S., but it is a terrific example of what’s to come.

Woo! That is so cool and usefull. I can’t wait until they make it so it works in more cities(considering I don’t live in any of the 12 they have). That’s really cool that they can do that.
