This is a tutorial for beginners on how to use Google My Maps. With this application, you can create custom maps to share with friends and embed on your website. In this video, we will take a deep dive on how to create a basic map, where each tool is, pros and cons, then finally conclude with sharing the map via various methods. My hope is to create a series of videos after this one where I teach you advanced features and sharing further knowledge on map-making.
