I haven't seen this posted anywhere but I recently found out that if you use two fingers to tap anywhere in google maps, it will zoom out similairly to how you can double-tap to zoom in!

Great tip, it works as long as your fingers are not too close together.

Lighten up. There are those of us that can't remember 6 months of every little piece of iphone related information in their head.

Not a secret...if you watch the finger videos at Apple.com the two finger tap is mentioned.

that is an awesome feature. On a different note, I have notice that some of the addresses won't show up on google maps on the iphone but will work just fine on a computer. Anyone has had the same problem?
