Now, instead of pasting a Google Map into an email you send, any Google Maps URL and any U.S. address (for the time being) you enclose will automatically come with a map embedded.
To enable the function in your Gmail, click the Google Labs setting tab and select "Google Maps previews in mail." Once that is functional, any Google Maps URL will be mapped. For the time being, only U.S. addresses are being extracted, but, according to Google software engineer, Mark Knichel, they are working on giving the extraction process a global reach.

Guess what I just did? Actually, I updated all my Labs settings. I hadn't checked them out in a while, and there were quite a few nifty ones I hadn't seen yet.
