A Better Google Maps Zoom
Some folks have noticed that [Google Maps](http://maps.google.com/) has a swanky new zooming control. You can now roll the mousewheel to activate it, or just double-click to zoom in one level on a particular point. This feature isn’t in the API yet, but there’s another new zoom control that’s really fabulous as well.
Andre Lewis has cooked up a classy [draggable-rectangle zoom widget](http://earthcode.com/blog/2006/07/gzoom.html). Check it out on his page.
