A Web App that I find very useful

I use google maps... alot. In the beginning, I only used it to find places to go or print directions. I now, due to the advent of blazing fast internet and processors, like the street view feature where you can virtually drive down the road and see 360 degrees all around you. I have used that quite a bit to get my bearings. I comes in quite handy so you feel like you have been there before and you know how the road is and where to go. Most recently, with my acquisition of a google powered android phone, I use google for gps directions. You can plot your trip on google from any computer and save the map. Then, on your phone you can simply choose that map and select driving directions. I find it to be more accurate than my Magellan GPS.

I also use pandora radio. I used to use it more, but now it has commercials and such and also a limit to how much you can listen to it with out a paid subsciptions. I guess not many good things last forever.

  1. Google maps is a great application. I know it has definitely helped me get from one place to another... even my 1st trip from New Jersey to Boston! :)
