As a lifelong habitual traveler, I have used internet mapping tools extensively in the course of planning my trips and getting to where I need to go, from well-known hotels and music venues to obscure clubs and friends' homes. Without them I would be lost. Quite literally.
I find it both fascinating and scary that technology has advanced so much as to enable the exact pinpointing of a location. With the use of GPS machines again it has been invaluable in finding my way around in unfamiliar locales, but it makes me a bit nervous that any random stranger could pinpoint someone's location simply by a few clicks on the Internet.
Some of us just may not want to be found. LOL
