I was a kid, so I remember what it was like to not have Google Maps. I remember having to print out directions from Mapquest, having to know how to read a map, having to ask for directions. But I've also had the luxury of growing up in an age where Google Maps was already an established technology.<br><br>I just cannot imagine living without it. It makes road trips so much easier. It keeps me updated on traffic. It helps me avoid construction. It tells me where the good gas stations are. It helps me find my friends when we go to the mall together.<br><br>I feel like it's one of those things that we don't really talk about how impactful it is. I feel like it's one of those technologies that's quietly changed our lives and made a huge impact.
