Internet search engine Ask Jeeves has launched a new Maps and Directions section to its site.

Much like other sites, if you type in a street name or postcode you will be shown a bird's eye view of the area. The Directions link allows you to type in the start and finish points of a journey and it will guide you through.

Tony Macklin, Ask Jeeves vice president of European Product Development, said:
?Despite the fact that 66 per cent of those surveyed claimed to read maps regularly, the time-stretched traveller still gets baffled when faced with your average A-Z.

?Having hectic lives often means back-to-back appointments, and more opportunities to lose your way. Offering concise online directions for even the least map-literate individual just makes life easier.?

I've never liked Jeeves, he never finds me what I'm looking for.

Perhaps you're not asking him nicely enough, Lona.

Could be my Scottish dialect that's the problem like for instance
