Google Maps Mania says it's the "ultimate travel mashup". The NY Times Travel section has integrated its Travel guide pages, with all its hotels and restaurants, with Google Maps to create guide for different cities. The map above is the New York City Guide, which is certainly useful, if not definitive.

Google Maps Mania points to a new map offering: Walking, subway and bus directions from GypsyMaps, all laid out on a Google Map. Actually, bus information will be coming in April, but GypsyMaps has a nice start, as it shows the point to point directions all laid out. (We asked for directions between 1 West 57th Street in Manhattan to 1 Centre Street.)

Another day, another nifty Google Maps mashup. Today's pick: Manhattan All Night. It's only got Manhattan stuff, hence the name, but it still manages to list 100 restaurants, 102 Deli/bodegas, 57 drug stores and 21 other stores that just don't close. That 280 24-hour spots for you to hit up those times when you're just too wired to get to sleep.

Google Maps Mania spotted a very timely mashup: Brian Timoney's super-duper marthon map. The map has kilometer and mile markers, and shows the full path of the race. Most important, however, it shows where the port-o-potties are-- because nothing is worse than running 26 miles and not being able to stop to pee.
