Map My Name: Earth as social network

The Map My Name project aims to find out how many people are using the web, one person at a time. I freaked at first after I mapped my name and looked at the closeup map view - I thought the little dart was pointing directly to my address. But no, it's just the Austin dart.

How long do you think it will be before they're acquired by Google? I say 4 months.

Real time traffic maps

Handy, handy, handy. Google Maps will show you real time traffic info for 30 cities around the country. I'm happy it's up for my city, but I'm linking you to the traffic map for New York, because it's a prettier map than Austin :)
