Sea Level Rise

I actually had a little while to screw around with Google this weekend and I came across a cool widget and a cool feature that are available for google maps. The widget is a sea level rise display.

Here is the scenario for Boston, Massachusetts for 2 meter , 6 meter and 10 meter sea level increases.

A web article I found HERE indicates that a sea level change as much as 70 Meters is possible.

The other cool feature running right now is that google has done a street level view of all the 2008 Tour de France stages. Very cool if you are a cycling geek. See it HERE.

Have Fun Kids.

  2. Hi Joe,
    Amazing what you can find as gadgets. Boston would be swamped it seems; I don't have to try for Oahu in Hawaii ... that's gone.
    Enjoying the Tour de France ? I just bet you are !!
    Cheers !

  3. google is amazing. i think the key to it is the 'cloud' effect of all the users.


    this years TdF has been excellent!
