Google maps reach a new level of awesomness
The google maps directions feature just got a whole lot better!
You can now dynamically change routes by dragging the blue line on to any other road!
Click here and then drag part of the blue line to any other road...
Handy for planning those big caching days out!

There were a couple of Aussie tourists who managed to get quite a long way into the mountainous backwoods of NZ's South Island a year or two ago, thanks to a hirecar's GPSr and some inadvertantly unlocked gates.Alansee wrote:Could be very useful! But what about the roads on the map that actually don't exist? And I assume that you heard about the person a couple of months ago who was taken down a four-wheel drive track by her car- mounted GPS! Took them two hours to find her.
And a village in England that's getting hordes of GPSr-misdirected traffic down its one narrow street!
Ummm.. no. My grandfather had a horse in the 30's, but that was a bit anachronistic even then!Alansee wrote:Remember when your horse knew the way home?
