Have you ever wanted to find a footpath with Google maps?

May 13 2010

Where’s the path‘ helps you do that. By displaying a UK Ordnance Survey (OS) map side by side with  a google map you can scroll and zoom both in synchrony to find a location. footpath andcycle routes. There are many options for displaying different types of OS and google maps even looking at OS maps from the 1930′s. If like me you enjoy walking and don’t always have the right OS map or you want to quickly check a location this is very useful. Especially for someone that lives in Cambridge where footpaths are hard to come by. It is also a very useful photography location scouting tool.

Not sure who to vote for?

Apr 27 2010

If your not sure who to vote for in the forth coming UK elections on the 5th May. This site may help you decide Vote for Policies. The idea is that you read anonymously the key points from all the parties manifestos then decide which you like the most. The site will then provide you with a breakdown of how you scored. So you may found you have voted for mostly Labour policies, but you may have found you also voted for BNP and the Green party polices as well. Its an interesting way of comparing the different policies on all the main issue of Crime, Welfare, Immigration, Education and Environment etc.

Not sure wether this helps decide with local election candidates. In Cambridge it might be useful.
