Google maps going mad?

google map of london

Earlier today I blogged about the latest BIMA debate (networking event) and suggested that Leicester Square station was the nearest tube station to the venue. However, it’s not the nearest station.

Take a look at the screen shot of the google map to the right. I quickly glanced at it before writing my original post and didn’t notice that the page was a little screwed up. This isn’t the first time Google maps has played with my head – is it my browser? It seems to be ok when I zoom in or out and it doesn’t happen often.

The nearest tube station to the event is in fact Angel, followed by Russell Square and Farringdon.

Janice witnessed a spike in registrations today so make sure you book your place before all the tickets are sold! Register now.

Below is a screen shot of the correct location!
