Less is more, that’s what Google wrote on their LatLong blog. They decided to clean the Google Maps interface a bit, which was by now cluttered with all kinds of information which made some of the users dazzle.

Again, Let’s do something for the user-experience. let’s make it more easy! Bigger Map viewing area for example. Away with the clutter, new tabs (user content)! They now use just one search box! make it easier for you to find stuff, not just pizza!

This UI also affected the European Google Engines.
