Nothing real exciting, but neat nontheless.

The neat part is the Get Directions syntax use. (SEE: the example code on the right side of the page)

"jfk to 350 5th, new york, ny" try it
"seattle to 98109"

Here is a good diagnostics multiple-utility application (download the .iso and then burn it to to CD-R, for example).

I just downloaded, burned, and it booted right up into the text driven menu. Looks like it may be pretty nice.

There is also the ability for add-on modules! And of course, you can customize the application to your needs/likes.

Oh, they also have some nice stock images for you to print and adhere to your CD!

Wow, that directions generator is FAST. Too bad I can't bring google in the car, eh? But... I use my trusty DeLorme Street Atlas with a Delorme USB GPS. BIG maps and talking directions.

I'm thinking of starting a companion site called "massiveurl.com" which converts normal URLs into gigantic URLs. Granted I haven't done the due diligence yet, but... :yes
