10,000,000,000,000,000 ... well, you get the idea.

It's easy to get used to some things on the web. Amazon always recommends books you wouldn't be interested in - ever, any word can be made sexual with the addition of .com & map websites are pretty good - and helpful.

Then something comes along that blows the current status quo out of the water. I give you that blow - Google Maps. Great with directions - it even gives you a AAA-esque highlight along the route - and it also helps you find local pizza or dance studios or art galleries or hardware stores.

And I dont' care what anyone says - it's good to know that the house you grew up in is just a few screen slides away. (at the correct zoom.)
