It's been a long time since I've run into a really cool interactive website, but if you haven't played with google's new map system, do yourself a favor and try it out: maps.google.com.

It is extremely easy to use. You can also come up with funny results. Just enter stuff into the blank textbox at the top, and see what they come up with.

It works so fast it feels like you're working with an actual paper map. I especially love how smoothly the map drags. This is a perfect tool for finding new road bike routes...
