Google Maps + Uber = Love

This week, Google announced updates to its Maps app on Android and iOS. The most intriguing feature is definitely the new Uber integration. If you already have the ride-sharing app on your phone, Uber will show up as an option when searching for public-transit directions within Google Maps. We expect big things from this partnership. via Engadget
