Awesome

The digital natives, kids who grow up with computers and the Net as part of their lives, have one big advantage over me: they will be alive long after I'm dead. One place I have something they have been denied is awe. Things that appear on the Net simply blow me away.

For example, I just followed a pointer from Robin Good to MultiMap.

Here's where Uta and I were married, in Heidelberg, Germany.

And the red dot marks my grandmother's house in Hope, Arkansas.

For someone who has bought heaven-only-knows how many paper maps, this sort of thing is phenomenal.
