Google Map API Pricing

[+UMainah]

It looks like Google has substantially lowered the price of it's Maps API from $4 per 1,000 hits to 50¢ per 1,000hits (if you consistently exceed the limit of 25,000 hits per day). Good news for Groundspeak.

That just brings it closer to the price that they are willing to negotiate anyway if you simply contact them. Its still on the high side and you can still get a better deal if you contact them.
