Google Transit

Google has a cool new beta feature for their Google Maps called Google Transit. It allows you to plan a trip just like you would on Google Maps except that it uses the public transportation system rather than your car.
It’s only available in 6 cities so far (mine included of course — we are the leading city in public transportation in the US after all), but more will be added soon apparently. :)
Just FYI, this was originally released for the Portland area only back in Dec. 2005 :)

Oh, well bah! In my defense, they listed it as “new” on the Google Labs page. :/
On a side note — very nice site, dude. :o I wish I had your artistic eye. Sadly, I stuck to just being a code monkey and being unable to make pretty websites.
