Quick Maps extension for Chrome lets you see address via Google Map without opening it.


Quick Maps is add-on for Firefox, developed my Mapify. Quick Maps lets you see the address on Google Maps with out opening it, when you hover your mouse over the address or when you select the address and "Right Click" (RMB) to look it directly.

Right now, it works for some countries like USA, UK, Spain, Italy, France, Germany and some others which the developer didn't mention. This add-on or the extension is available for Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome.

HOW TO: USING QUICK MAPS ON GOOGLE CHROME:

1. In general, Quick Maps auto-detects addresses in the web-pages when we hover mouse over it, but as it's still in developing phase we can totally rely on that. So, to look the address in Google Maps, select the address and "Right Click" (RMB) the mouse button and select "Search with Quick Maps". For example, here I am looking for Twitter Office.
