Use Google Maps For Facebook Places

Kamis, 04 Agustus 2011
Have you been Facebook places religiously, then you probably also hate that Facebook.com uses Bing Maps to show you the check-in(s). This article tells you how to configure your browser to show Google Maps instead of Bing Maps.

If you still don’t know what I mean, then check how boring a check-in to the Statue of Liberty looks on Facebook places using Bing Maps.
 What’s Facebook places?
Facebook places is a social check-in service just like FourSquare or Gowalla. A couple of businesses reward the users (like discounts on coffee) by the visit frequency. You can read our coverage on Facebook places.
Steps to use Google Maps in Facebook Places
  1. Mandatory: Verify Compatibility.
    For Mozilla Firefox – If you have Greasemonkey in Mozilla Firefox, Install it
    For Google Chrome/Chromium – check if you have version 4.0+, upgrade if not.
  2. Install the Facebook Places with Google Maps user script.
    You will be prompted if you trust the script, accept it (no, i don’t want to steal your password) – You can actually see the project source code too.
  3. Voila, you’re done. You should now be able to see a much better and bigger Google Map for the same Location. Here’s how the Statue of Liberty check-in looks now.

Now, isn’t this what you wanted? Colorful and useful. Head over here for more details.
Liked it?
Thank you – you’re our most valued customer. Leave us a feedback. We do plan to modify this to have a better Google maps embed so that you can pan around too.
Didn’t like it?
You can always disable temporarily or uninstall it from Greasemonkey script manager or Chrome Extensions.
