Ask.com has added the ability for users to embed maps from Ask City in their blogs and web pages. The business directory and mapping service will also display movie info, maps, and ticket info. After you've got the map you need, simply click "Embed" up in the top right corner, copy the code, and paste it where you need to in your site.
A feature unique to these maps is the ability to search inside a given area. Get to the city you want, use the drawing tools provided to mark out the area you want, and then search for things like "food" or "coffee" and the search will only return results in the area you designated. You can then zoom in and out as needed, and receive driving & walking directions.
Though Google is now embedding maps also, the search radius feature is an upping in the never ending mapping service war.
