GoogleMaps fun

As an aside to everything else I've been having fun with GoogleMaps lately and think it's kinda cool being able to create your own map and embed the results in your blog (or where ever). Here's one I prepared earlier.....


View Larger Map

It shows general directions from Grafton (me) to Salt Ash (my parents).
What's cool about this? Aside from the fact that it creates the html code for me (just cut and paste), it's an easy way to keep track of maps if & when I may need them again, and when blogs are shared it's a simple way of coordinating a trip where all collaborators can go in and view the suggested route/itinerary. I like it.

I don't really need a map from Grafton to Salt Ash (I could probably drive it blindfolded if I had to) but I'm using this aspect to keep track of the next planned Biblio Turismo run scheduled for May this year - bound to be fun!
