Today, Google introduced a new Gadget for web surfers to enjoy, the Google Maps Gadget.

To find a new destination for your coffee fix without having to leave the site you're on, all you need to do is use the Google Maps gadget on the new Google Toolbar 5 (for Internet Explorer or Firefox).

Every time you click on the "compass" icon on my Toolbar, a Google Maps window pops under it: inside the gadget you can search for "Seattle Cafe" and get listings of local coffee shops, along with reviews and driving directions. You can find more interesting gadgets to add to your Toolbar in the Google Gadgets gallery.
