Due to the Transit strike, I decided I should try walking to work from Brooklyn. I mean, people ride their bikes from BK to Manhattan all the time, how far can it really be? I left my house around 10:15 am, stopped at a local deli and got a nice egg, ham and cheese sandwhich and started my little journey across the Williamsburge bridge with my roommate. 20 minutes into it and my lower leg muscles were starting to hurt a little bit. I think it was because of the uphill climb to the arc of the bridge. Once we passed that part, I was totally fine. Two hours later and I finally made it to work. All in all not a bad walk.
This brings us to Wayfaring.com:
With Wayfaring.com you can explore maps created by others, or create your own personalized map. Share them with friends or the whole world.
And that is exactly what I did. I signed up, which took about 2 minutes and started to create my own custom map. This is a feature that I REALLY wish Google maps had already. Being able to plot multiple points on a map is a really nice feature. Being able to plot out a whole route and share it with the world is even cooler. I think this is a great service and very easy to use. Here is the map of my transit strike journey to work from Brooklyn.
