Innovation

Google, that bastion of continuous improvement, suddenly, quietly, has added lots of surface streets to its traffic feature on its Maps. The Google Map I have on my iGoogle page shows Washington DC and it's set to show me the traffic (nevermind that I don't drive into work - it's still interesting and often makes me happy that I'm not driving). Now it shows traffic on 14th St and Connecticutt and Constitution and Independence - even some of the farther out arteries like 7 and route 50.

Very cool.
