Google will now let you fly as the crow does. According to The Atlantic City Lab: “Google Maps this week has updated with a fresh tool. Users can right-click on any location on a map, select 'measure distance,' click on another location, and see a line displaying the exact mileage between the two points.

To make the time range earlier or later, drag the time slider to the right or left. The range marker moves with the time slider so that the time range shown remains the same. Zoom in to shorten or zoom out to lengthen the date range covered by your timeline. The Start and End dates on the timeline change.

On your computer, open Google Maps. Right-click on your starting point. Select Measure distance. To create a path to measure, click anywhere on the map.

Pedometers and Fitness Trackers Pedometer and fitness tracker steps are translated into a distance measurement based on your stride length. Many pedometers ask you to measure your stride length and enter it into your user profile, then it automatically calculates the distance you walk.
