Thing 15 – Google Maps Thing 16 Google Earth
Been there / done that /still doing that . I love Google maps, I use them regularly, as someone who has little or no sense of direction I find them really useful. I often use them to check driving directions especially as it is so easy to visually change the route and print off directions.

During the summer last year I use Google Maps to plot the route my son and his friend were taking while doing a sponsored walk.
We will walk 500 miles
walk from John O’ Groats to Keighley in aid of Manorlands Hospice, Oxenhope. David Lewis and Ryan Mitchell. 25th July to end August ish 2008.
here is a link to the 500Mile blog and a link to my Google map, I intend to actually finish plotting the route…sometime soon….
I also used the facility to linkup with Flickr and put photos onto the map – a mashup though at the time I didn’t know that’s what it was –

Thanks 25Things for the nudge about Google Moon –
