If you're not a fan of the newest version of Google Maps, Google Operating System found a quick way to access the old version of maps from an old URL.


To get to classic Maps, just head to http://www.google.com/local. For whatever reason, using the old Local URL brings up the older version of Maps. Likewise, you can always click the question mark icon in the new Google Maps and select "Return to classic Google Maps." If you're finding the new Google Maps too bloating or feature heavy, classic Maps might do the trick.
