Instantly Find Yourself on a Google Map
Peripatetic types are used to plopping down in the nearest coffee shop to enjoy a little free Wi-Fi and a well-heated latte. But when you need a quick set of directions or want to find a good place to eat in the neighborhood, you have to go through the same tap dance over and over: Open Google Maps, manually enter your current address (assuming that you even know the coffee shop's address), and finally search for what you need. Instead of going through that routine, try installing the Geode Firefox extension, the Greasemonkey extension, and the Google Maps and Geode Greasemonkey script. Armed with them, the next time you visit Google Maps you'll see a new Current Position link next to the search box that will instantly locate you on a map. And when Firefox 3.1 is released, you won't need the Geode extension at all.
