First demoed during its I/O conference back in May, Google has been making its new Google Maps web app available to users on an invite only basis. Today, Google has opened up the service to all by allowing users to try out the redesigned maps through a sign up on its website.

The new Google Maps for the web is even easier to try out. No email invite needed. Sign up and get instant access: http://t.co/uN65ALct88
