Ask Maps works by allowing users to pose complex, contextual queries rather than searching for a specific place or category. 'Is there a public tennis court with lights on that I can play at tonight?' is the example Google offers.

For the first time, however, the Spy Museum will dedicate an all-new exhibit to exploring the history of camouflage, in an installation that will be on display for the next three years.
