30 June 2011 – Doesn’t work anymore due to the implementation of Google+? Guess we’re back be stuck with super duper long GoogleMaps urls 🙁

Now the most annoying thing is that the URL is so damn long when you want to share your current Google Maps search with people. It clutches the whole screen and it quickly becomes chaotic when you have several links listed underneath each other.
There’s a way to get short URLs on Google Maps. Go to http://www.googlelabs.com/, select “Labs voor Google Maps” on the right and enable “Short URL”.
Your link will now be something like “http://goo.gl/maps/wtIy” instead of having a super long URL 🙂
