Google Maps Smart Search
One of the coolest Google Maps features is the integration with Google's K**wledge Graph. Besides providing useful information about different places, K**wledge Graph makes the search feature smarter.

You can search for [Canada capital (https://www.google.com/maps/search/canada+capital/)], [Tom Cruise birthplace (https://www.google.com/maps/search/tom+cruise+birth+place/)], [Amazon river where does it start (https://www.google.com/maps/search/amazon+river+where+does+it+start/)], [largest city in India (https://www.google.com/maps/search/largest+city+in+india/)] and many other queries that return a location in Google Search.

It's much easier than using Google Search to find a place and then switching to Google Maps and searching for it.http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/GoogleOperatingSystem/~4/Sgr5eNa3mIM
