This stuff is cool!

For those of you who require some catching up: Google Maps is fast becoming the first choice of many people looking for places and directions. One nice feature is that you can easily pan the map in any direction without reloading the whole page (and we already know how klutzy Mapquest can be with that). If that's not enough to make you check it out, this should do it: Click on satellite and you will see an actual aerial photo of the location that you specify. Zoom in far enough and you can pick out your house on the street. Check out my address - mine's the top window at the left-hand corner of the building. See me waving?

Today's update is the cool addition of Google Moon, in honor of the anniversary of the first manned Moon landing. Make sure to zoom in all the way. Guaranteed chuckle.

I thought men were supposed to look forward each morning to arising and learning the Torah - not some other woman's daily travails.
