Earlier this year, Google made a news after buying social mapping app Waze for a reported $1.3 billion. Waze provides users with real time traffic and road hazard updates. The app packages these features in a friendly interface that relies on points and badges to add a social element to the mapping experience – think Foursquare for being on the road. Google is just now integrating the suite of features it acquired with its purchase of Waze into its mapping services.
