Does anyone use any other online Map other than Google when looking for street level satellite maps?
I live in Taiwan, and frequently need to look up a location for directions on how to get to it, and the other day I was curious if there is any other site that offers a competitive mapping system to Google Maps.
So far I have tried Bing Maps, Yahoo Maps both US and Taiwan versions, and Taiwanese map site. When compared to Google Maps satellite view they all fail to deliver a quality image.

Does anyone know of a map that can rival Google's?

Don't get me wrong I love Google Maps, and don't want to change I am just curious if there is anyone even on the level as Google Maps.

I've tried Mapquest and other ones but, nothing compares to Google.

I think Google Maps is the best one out there.

I especially love their street view! I can use that instead of driving around and wasting gas to look for specific locations.

I agree with J.T., especially since you're outside of the U.S. it is going to be difficult to find a lot of detail. When I traveled in Europe I often had a hard time in rural areas. Mapquest can be a great alternative but I'm not sure if it will be better for Taiwan. Sorry! Google also probably isn't focused on improving their images because they have so much going for them right now, so you might be stuck with it as it is for awhile.

Google's so-called "improvements" SUCK! I'm looking for another vendor!
