Android's Google Maps has been given an extra nudge, reaching the dizzying heights of five-point-twelve-point-oh. So what's changed? Well, for starters, the ability to post to Twitter has been nixed from the Places pages, replaced by the natty ability to see what's going on in places nearby. Giving it a try in London, it's got a pretty broad remit, and covers live music, plays and even museum exhibitions. The feature is currently limited to the British capital, Paris, Zurich, New York and San Francisco, but then, they're the centers of the universe, right? You can pick up the 6MB update -- and some culture -- at the source link below.
