2 line map parsing!

Want proof that if you have a problem all you have to do is tell what your problem is and somebody listening on the intercom will solve it for you? I was complaining that maps.google.com didn’t parse a two line address that got pasted into the search field. The first line makes it and the second line is disappeared. An address has to be on one line to get pasting to work. That you have to pre-format makes the experience less like the magic that it could be.Enter the magic: googmappin.com takes your address that is formatted on multiple lines and feeds it to google correctly formatted. So cool. Follow the link then drag the URL to your Bookmarks bar in Safari or Bookmark it (Command-D) to the Bookmarks bar and name it maps. Now when you need a map just click that button and paste the address.
