Now you can use Google Maps on your computer, laptop, or even smartphone, and have Google send those directions to your vehicle and when you get in the vehicle, the directions will be there waiting for you.

And that means you get to use one of my favorite parts of Google Maps -- the extreme ease of customizing your route (you simply drag the blue line on the route to the road you want to take and it adjust the route for you so if you know a shortcut,  you can take it and still be following your voice prompts).

This video explains it all pretty well -- if you’re interested, it’s definitely worth the 2:15 of your time.
