...to the folks at Google. Have you seen Google Maps' new draggable route planner? Amazing...

Is that new? I've been using it for what seems like your destination.

Here's another of my favourite routes.

Of course, saying 'my favourite routes' Down Under would cause mass hysteria.

It's definitely new - it says "New!" on the left-hand side.

Here's a slightly smug video about it.

Speaking of favourite routes, my dad always used to wonder how far this was.

my favourite is the street 360 views on the google maps, but i think it's just for certain parts of the US currently. It's great though, maps and real life don't often jive (yes - jive) and the photos are great!
