Making Maps

Seriously, it's easy as hell.

Let's go to Google Maps and make one now!

This is a map I made last night. Took me all of about two minutes to do it. Beyond this, you can use different locator tabs, embed pics and videos and links, ect.

Maps work well with stories where geography and location weigh heavily in telling a story, like where crimes happen on campus and such. It also allows readers to interact with the story, clicking on tabs and reading about whatever news happens at that location.
