Want to drown in the Indian Ocean?
16th November 2006
There are tons of hacks and mashups out there that build upon Google Maps through their API.
The one I’ve been fooling around with today lets you select any point on earth and “dig” a hole directly across the middle of the Earth. After clicking you end up on the other side. Unfortunately, it appears that digging from anywhere on the continental United States would land you somewhere in the Indian Ocean. At least Hawaiians ends up in Africa somewhere…
Go get your geographical shovel and give it a try.
