How to Help Someone Get Un-lost

Esther called me up a little while ago. She was lost somewhere in La Cañada Flintridge and needed help to find the rest of the way. With two pieces of information — where she was and the destination address — I easily gave her directions for the rest of her journey.

What rocks: Yahoo! Maps

I wrote a review of the service last year. Since then, Google Maps did add support for multiple destinations, as well as reverse destinations.

The feature of being able to drive to/from the center cross hair slays Google Maps! Why hasn’t Google implemented this feature? Pfft.
