When you think of maps online, you tend to think of MapQuest. The first MapQuest web site went online in 1996. During 2000, America Online (AOL)
acquired MapQuest. Finding a map is very easy, just enter the address you are
looking for in the search box and click on the "Get Map" button. You can also use MapQuest to get driving directions between two addresses. Use the MapQuest Directions Search box to see how easy it is! |
In 2003, MapQuest Mobile was launched for cell phones. MapQuest Mobile - A subscription service that allows you to get maps and directions on your phone wherever you are. MapQuest Mobile offers you coast-to-coast coverage from the world's leading online map provider.

During 2005, two additional MapQuest cell phone services were added; MapQuest Find Me and MapQuest Traffic. |
