    Taking over the world one useful feature at a time
  • jlevine, on 07/23/2008, -1/+0This is awesome. I tried to get my cousin to build a similar app about two years ago. Glad someone's doing it.
  • MrAction408, on 07/23/2008, -0/+1NICE. I still don't know why people use other mapping apps like mapquest....
  • channelx, on 07/23/2008, -0/+1Soon enough they'll be implanting the Google Brain Chip in people and you'll be able to pull up walking directions inside your brain.
  • schroeder, on 07/23/2008, -0/+1I hope they add this to the iPhone app. It'd be cool if they had detours for high crime areas or indicator colors like traffic view.
