    Great article, KJP... as always. I can't help but wonder, though, it seemed like it was a little short. Was some of it edited out?

    More national then state level, but I am sure some of the long haulers will make their way through Ohio at one point.

    Holy Schmoly. You ain't kidding. I had heard we were his first stop, but I figured it was just a courtesy visit on his way to something bigger. The draft will be very interesting.

    Count me as a maybe for Thursday. My wife is leaving for Ireland Friday morning and might be in the middle of a freakout, which means I will have to protect the kids from her.

    Still no date, but at least somebody is trying to make this happen sooner, rather then later.

    This is sort good news for the little guy, although it only adds up to about 6 months worth of real music.

    Green = Good Yellow = Slow Red = Bad They are also directional, hence the two stripes for each highway. Saw this on Google Blogoscoped. Re-affirms what you just said.

    I just compared google maps, google earth, m$ live map regular and m$ live maps bird's eye for CSU. m$ live image was a lot older the googles (map and earth - both at least two years old. The old intramural sports dome is present and you can just see the beginnings of construction work on the Euclid Corridor) but the bird's eye view was less then a year old and there was great resolution
  19. Is this going to be a world class fence? PD had a map with the 8 properties on it. Doesn't look like Fagan's is on the list yet. I'm surprised it hasn't been burned down yet.

    There are several Google threads on on the board, but I thought it would be a good thing to have one place to discuss and share. (If the mods would like to combine threads here, I would be OK with that.) So I noticed something for the first time last week when searching for some properties. At the closest two levels of viewing an area in Cleveland (I have not checked other cities in Ohio or the country) there are now semi-detailed footprints of all of the buildings. http://www.google.com/maps?q=Cleveland,+OH&ie=UTF8&om=1&z=17&ll=41.499554,-81.693671&spn=0.005006,0.011544 Then yesterday, I found out you can now view traffic details for select cities in the country. There is a new button on the top right. http://maps.google.com/?q=Cleveland,+OH+44111&ie=UTF8&om=1&z=12&ll=41.450961,-81.657257&spn=0.160315,0.369415&layer=t Finally, as most of you techie types know, Google provides their API to developers so new applications can be made. One of the things that I thought was missing from the free version of Google Earth was a way to figure out the square footage of a piece of property without having to all that gosh darn math. Well, I found a website that figures it out for you. Find the property as you normally would, Make at least 3 seperate clicks and it will figure out the area in standard and metric measurement. Cool stuff. http://www.acme.com/planimeter/
  21. Ewwwwww... I'm excited now.
