This is a beginner's tutorial on how to use Google My Maps. This application allows you to create custom maps that you can share with friends and embed on your website. In this video, we'll dive into how to create a basic map, with the pros and cons of each tool, and conclude by sharing the map using different methods. My hope is to create a series of videos next where I teach you advanced features and share further knowledge about card making.
