Google Maps on your gas pump

November 7, 2007 |

Google maps is coming to your local gas pump. Not a bad idea for those of us who don’t like to ask for directions (or don’t have a GPS yet).

Greensboro, N.C.-based Gilbarco initially will offer the service at about 3,500 gas pumps and expand based on retailer demand. Unlike most of Google’s services, this one won’t include ads to bring in income. But participating retailers will be able to make extra money from other merchants that offer coupons on the service.

Of course, this has less to do with Google than with the company putting the screens in. Seems more like a mash-up to me.
