If Jesus had used Google Maps throughout his ministry, do you think he'd have given up in frustration?

I had to walk throughout downtown New Orleans today to drop off r茅sum茅s at various places...doing so at 94 掳 F was not only NOT fun, but the directions Google Maps gave me pretty much took THE longest routes imaginable!





It was an epic voyage, just like "The Land Before Time"....ughhhh|||Google maps also tend to invent streets that don't exist. And yes they do send you in such round-a-bout ways it's infuriating.|||Maybe it's trying to tell you that it's not smart to live or work below sea level...

NRHH: Look up directions from LA to Tokyo on Google Maps...?

...then look at step 15. wtf?


here, i'll just do it for you:

RHH: what is your "end of the summer" song?|||I think somebody at Google is cracked out|||dude just kyak


i mean its easy stop whining LOL


thats impossible











and idk i listen to more old music i usually dont listen to music right when it come out so an old song


Bullet- Rhymefest


thats more end of life but idk lol








if it HAS to be about summer tho


Sublime - Summertime|||^beat me by 2 seconds





hahahaha... last time i kayaked across the ocean i had to kill like 400 pirates.





rhh: hmm i dont really have one, i was gonna say 'dear summer' by jay z but then remembered i hate that song.. let me get back to this|||I don't get why they tell you to drive up to Washington if you're just gonna Kayak all the way down to Hawaii on the way.





Could probably shave a few days off that trip by going in one direction.





RHH: Kick Push. Has a real end of summer/beginning of fall beat.





EDIT: LOL ^^^ Mech beat me to it..|||I can give you directions in one step, go to the air port.





RHH: i have been taken college classes during the summer, so i haven't enjoyed my summer.|||HA! Methinks the Google programmers are fat.





Edit: Mechanical - I'm guessing it has something to do with currents. The 'motion of the ocean' may not be going in your desired direction. After all, you ARE kayaking.|||exactly why did you look this up? im gonna go get directions form ohio to russia now





RHH:im gonna say summertime- will smith im obsessed with it for some reason|||lmao kyak to hawaii

Where can I find driving directions for commercial vehicles? (in NY they can use expressways but not parkways?

with Mapquest there is the option to not use any highways but that does not serve my purpose. In NY commercial vehicles can use expressways but not parkways and neither Yahoo nor Google maps seem to offer options for those kind of directions.|||I know your pain. NYC is not very forgiving to commercial vehicles when they get lost or confused. If you have a laptop. PC Miler or similar mapping software for trucks will help %26amp; using trucking common sense when looking at the maps (angles of streets hold clues if we can make the turns or not). Online, try layover.com, a trucking website with loads of information, including routing. Good luck!!|||My Father owns a trucking company in NJ and uses PC Miler.

Where can I find driving directions from San Francisco, California to Buenos Aires, Argentina?

A friend of mine is going to Argentina, and although he has already decided to fly, I thought it would be interesting to see how to get there by car. I tried both Yahoo! and Google Maps, but neither of those sites could give me directions (in fact they did not even give directions to Mexico City. Mapquest did not give an option be to put in another country.





Does anyone know of an international map website that could give directions, or does anyone know someone who has driven from North America to South America?|||It seems reasonable that you could drive if you could cross each border into the next country with your United States passport.





Quality or existence of roads is likely to be troublesome as well. I know you can drive into Mexico, but interstates are not a reality in all the countries you would be passing through. Paved roads are not a priority in countries where automobiles are not the obsession or need that they are here.





Having said that, if you speak Spanish, Portuguese and a variety of Indian dialects, or can communicate in other ways, it sounds like an adventure of a lifetime,

Here is the website u have to go to: mapquest.com|||You could try Yahoo! Maps and just follow the major highways without getting directions per se. Oh, yeah, I just remembered- I don't think there is a road between Colombia and Panama- I remember a guy was talking about how he was on this expedition to drive from Tierra del Fuego to Point Barrow, Alaska and they had to hack a path for their Jeeps through the jungle, but that was the late 70's (it was on PBS at the time) Maybe one is there now. If not , a ferry might take you along the coast (not through the jungle, which is nice). It's probably a very dangerous trip, though.

Block directions to my address on MAPQUEST/GOOGLE??

is there anyway so that peaple cant get dirctions to my address?|||Blocking your address is impractical when someone can enter your neighbors address or even the people across the street from you.





Short of demolishing one's house and living in a cave, there's no way to opt-out from Mapquest. You can opt-out your address and phone number from Google's phone directory but not from direction finding applications.

Near the upper right corner you should see the FarmVille Extender icon. It's a square with a wavy rainbow background %26amp; the letters "FV". (should be just to the left of the tool (wrench) icon)

Saving Google Maps direction on iPod Touch?

If all hope is lost, I will go back to the way I used to do it. (Take a picture and view as image.)|||I have an iPhone without a data plan.





What I do is just find the directions in the Map app while I have wifi, and look around route in the map, zoom in on places of interest.





When I leave the WIFI area, the directions and a good amount of map data are saved in the cache. I can pull out the iPhone and look at the directions in Map app at anytime.





If I accidentally start a new map search, or change directions, it gives an error about there being no Internet connection, and my route disappears. So be careful not to do that!





Assuming the iPod Touch works the same way as my iPhone, you can do this too.

Can I get directions from Goolge Maps for riding bicycles?

In the google maps , we always get the directions that tells you how to drive to some place , but i don't have a car, and i would like to know how i can get to the place by bicycle which would be better to follow than the directions for driving a car. Can anybody know how we can make the Goolge maps display the route for people who ride bicycles? Thank you very much!|||Currently Google Maps does not have that functionality, they only give driving directions. Your best bet would be to use Ask.com 's maps and select the 'walking direction' feature. This will display walking routes, which are usually accessible to bicycles as well. You may want to cross-reference this with the driving directions as many urban areas require bicycles to act as cars and only use roads instead of sidewalks, check with the local community's biking page (seach the community and 'bike' in Yahoo! or Google) to see about any local restrictions.

Google/Yahoo re-directions?

Everytime i search for ANYTHING on google/yahoo, i get redirected to a website that has nothing to do with what i searched for, and i look at the url and it says something like floridatraffic or directsomething.





Am i the only one having these problems and any help?|||You have the "Google Redirect Virus", which basically infects your PC and then changes the settings on your browser to redirect to random websites. This virus is a big problem for millions of computers and is also quite difficult to remove. The problem is that because it just changes a few settings on your system, this virus is continually able to evade the traditional antivirus programs, making it difficult to remove the various files that it has. Fortunately, you can remove this infection quite easily by using this tutorial: http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/spy鈥?/a>|||Sounds like you might be infected with the same virus I was. These "rootkit" viruses are very good at hiding themselves from antivirus software. But there are some tools out there that look specifically for these things and remove them.





The 1st one to try is TDSSKiller.exe:


http://support.kaspersky.com/viruses/sol鈥?/a>





If that doesn't do the job you can try Combofix (I used this to fix my redirect problem):


http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/combofix鈥?/a>





Oh, and to reduce the chances of a virus like this installing itself again in future, you should update Java (I heard it installs itself by taking advantage of a vulnerability in a previous version of Java). To do this open Control Panel and (in classic view) open the Java Control Panel. On the Update tab click the "Update Now" button. Enabling automatic updates for Java is also a good idea.

What directions are more acurate, Mapquest or Google?

Im moving from Puerto Rico to Dallas , Texas.....and yes, Im a man who ask for directions...hehe|||Map Quest has always helped me and my husband but just recently we bought a Navigator System and I can tell you that it would beat Map Quest and Google at any time cause you don't need to be driving around with a map in your hands. It's really worth it and their not that expensive mine cost $500.00 but I know that their are cheaper one. Good Luck and have a safe trip. GOD BLESS.|||I cannot attest to their accuracy, but I have always prefered mapquest, myself.|||In my experience, neither.





Neither of the last two places I have lived are in the Mapquest or Google databases. And neither puts the "X" directly over the address. Sometimes, it is hundreds of yards away, at the nearest intersection.|||Google is more accurate, but neither is real accurate. Both of them get you in the general area, but you will still find things on teh other side of the road or intersection from what they say.

How many times has Mapquest/Google Maps deceived you?

I'm just curious - whilst Mapquest/Google Maps provides a service, how many times have they deceived you in 1) directions 2) total mileage? Google Maps is the worst, they make you take U-turns everywhere!|||compared to when there was not such a service, I have no complaints|||Google Maps has repeatedly deceived me, three times in the past two months, I'm not using them anymore for directions.

Not sure what to do here cause I didn't write down mileage from car......i'm a bit ADHD and hard to stay organized that way.|||while the Google or MapQuest report would be fine, there is an issue of deducting the mileage at all.





Yes, you're self-employed in housekeeping. but, no -- the primary place of business isn't your house, it is where you render the service [you never had any expectation otherwise]. that means the mileage is commuting mileage and not deductible.|||That's a wonderful idea!|||mileage from your home to your first place of work is not deductible, the mileage to other jobs, errands etc would be but driving from home to the place you work is commuting and never deductible|||It's not a bad idea but commuting to work is never deductible.

Print a map of your destination. That should help.|||It is probably just a different route. I would do google. The last few times I used mapquest it sent me on a lot of backroads which took much longer than the direct route would have.|||Try Yahoo maps. I used to use mapquest, but it is not always correct. Yahoo maps are easy to read, and you can see your destination before you go. Figure on traffic if it's on a major highway during commute time, and weather conditions like snow or fog if you have to choose which way to go.|||It would be a lot easier if you used the map I gave you and when you get to the airport just show your ticket to the person behind the desk.

Cars are not allowed on the El Monte Busway; why does Google Maps say otherwise?

When I asked Google Maps for directions, it said to drive a car on the El Monte Busway. This is not allowed. Why does Google Maps say to do it?|||who told cars were not allowed, they are allowed but you have be in a carpool of 3 or more passengers|||Google maps is similar to Mapquest in that they are not 100% correct.

Also if you do what they recommend, you'll have the Sheriff's Deputies or the Highway Patrol waiting for you at the other end!|||This might be a question better directed at Google, instead of Yahoo.





Having said that, wouldn't you think that a thoroughfare called a BUSWAY would be reserved for BUSES? Isn't it implied that this would be a road reserved for buses, and wouldn't it make sense to use your common sense and avoid it regardless of what Google says?





Hey ... I'm just sayin ...|||That's why it's always best to ask locally for directions. Try to make contact with Google Maps to get this information updated.

How reliable are the Chicago CTA travel times on Google Maps?

I was wondering if the travel times are accurate when I'm looking for directions in Chicago using Google. I've heard the times are kind of inflated and the time spent on the El is actually shorter than what it says. Anyone familiar with Chicago transit to be able to verify this? I appreciate any help/advice.|||Well--I guess the short answer is "what travel times?"





There is no real set schedule to the buses or trains. However, the times on www.transitchicago.com are relatively accurate most of the time regarding how long a trip takes.





However--about 1/3 of the time your train will become stuck on the track for short periods of time. So, there's no way to ever know for sure.

How does one get their business on Google Maps?

When I Google local businesses, a Google Map comes up right away for most. I'd like the same for my own business. Does anyone know what I need to do to make that happen? My shop does have a website, of course, and lots of people Google it for directions, so having that map come up would be a help...not to mention, it would look good for the business.





Thanks.|||Go here, and click "Add new business":


http://www.google.com/local/add/analytic…|||Google Maps based by search engine with Geo-targeting; that means when people query the shop name or types business location, the answer will upon the "Keyword" %26amp; "Located".


There are some my experience;





1. Make Your Business Name maintain "Keyword" at Google Map


For example; I helped my friend to put her restaurant on Google Map; however, it came out a lot of the same keywords with her restaurant type and name around there. That means the keyword is popular query and also has some tricky if attracted the people see your listings in the bunch of queries. So, I still keep the popular restaurant “keyword name” in the front and then her located “Brandon” coz her restaurant in Brandon and no one use it with this words. Then, her lists come out with the same keyword but with “Brandon” and people can focus to search where business located. You can put your business with it and make people easy to remember such as;


%26lt;Your Biz Name%26gt; + %26lt;Catalogs Keyword%26gt; + %26lt;Special words as located%26gt;


Yummy Japanese Restaurant Brandon





2. Attractive Image


You can create some attractive photos or your biz logo; put it on your post listings image.Let people recognize that you are the right biz what they found when they see your name, logo or front store photo.


3. Google has an entire system to allow you put more detail information to describe your business; you can upload more images and video. You have to write very clearly about your business and products sales, business hours…the ways to contact you as go to your website…also, you can make a coupon that is Google new stuff and help your biz sales.


4. Attention the reviews


The listing reviews can impact your biz public image

http://www.expedia.com/pub/agent.dll?qsc鈥?/a>





It works.





Here is your route.


http://www.expedia.com/pub/agent.dll?tpi鈥?/a>





Simpler explanation:


Drive from LA to El Paso, Texas on Hwy 10.


Cross the border to Ciudad Juarez.


Take Hwy 45 to Torreon.


From there Hwy 40 heads southwest to Durango.





Another possible route is to take Hwy10 as far as Tucson.


Take 19 to Nogales, Arizona.


Cross the border to Nogales, Mexico.


Take Hwy 15 to Mazatlan.


Take Hwy 40 over El Espinazo de Diablo (the Devil's Backbone) to Durango. It's very curvy, but considered the most beautiful mountain highway route in Mexico.|||See site below. add a few hrs to the time. you may be able to vary your route in the U.S. a little, but it would be wise to stick to the out laid out to Durango. You should also get a Guia Roji, the Mexican road atlas...at a large book store or Amazon.com. And you will need Mexican car ins and a Mexican car permit.

Google Earth Directions?

I have the latest version of Google Earth. I am wondering if there is a function where you put in two addresses, and then it can take you from one to the other, along the road or whatever. You know what I mean? Thanks.|||Yes, I have the latest version of Google Earth and I can do it. Here's what to do, it's very simple.


If the sidebar on the left is not there, or not visible hold down Ctrl+Alt+B all at the same time. The sidebar will appear and near the top it will say 'Search'. Under that there are three tabs. 'Fly to' 'Find Businesses' and 'Directions'. Click on directions and put in the two addresses.





If, for what ever reason this doesn't work and for more options, like whether you are going by car or walking, go onto google maps.

This is a Google earth Help guide which might help you.


http://earth.google.com/userguide/v4/ug_鈥?/a>


(it's about half way down the page)





If you still can't find anything that works then RAC route planner is your next best option. Just put in the two addresses and your done.


http://route.rac.co.uk/








hope this helps.|||Yes, at the top of the left pane you have the Directions tab. Just press that and then you get the boxes, From and To to put in your places, press the search button and you get your directions.





However, for routes in UK I still don't think you can better www.theaa.com.|||You can certainly do this in Google Maps Most direct route or can vary route to suit , Handy to locate just where you are going .. Even shows you the entrance to car park etc of where you are going to|||I always do it via google maps





it's a lot easier and you get the same views as google earth.|||u have to install google earth than that all works

Is it more accurate to Google or Map-quest for directions?

How can I make my website to use native GPS or Google Maps for directions on a mobile phone?

Hi





I have a website that is optimized for mobile.





Now I would like to have a function/feature that can use the phone's GPS or google maps and give directions to my business place from the users current location.





Other thing is: when users go to contact page, they will see some phone numbers. When user touches a phone number I want the phone dialer to open with the number, %26amp; ready to be dialed.





Can some one give me suggestions or references...

I cannot get directions with google maps.it does not recognise my address?

Pick a location near to you that Google Maps does recognize and use that as your address for mapping purposes. If you're trying to use it to give someone directions to your home, then do the same but pick a recognizable landmark (gas station, convenience store) nearby and give the last few steps from there in text.|||trying just searching and put the phone number that works if not use mapquest.com|||google maps doesnt go on all streets so use a street that is more of a main road and then look for the directions from there!|||Well it might not have a satellite view of your house.

What is the best thing for getting directions like mapquest or google maps??

need answer please.......|||they are both very accurate. try any of the two...|||I've tried several, but I think I like Google the best.

Surprisingly half had no idea but they could tell you by landmarks how to get around :).|||Not anytime soon, hun.





My phone has GPS...and I can never use it.





When me and my mom go somewhere, and we have no idea where it is, we just ask people..mainly because a) there are no street signs SOMETIMES...b) the street signs are really old..and can't be read c) they're covered with ads and shizz.





But, if you're like..in Metro Manila..i don't think that's much of a problem.

So i went on google map directions, and it didn't help very much...?

is there a way i can alter what mph id be driving to my destination? because if the map is set to track like a car going 55 mph, i want to change that. because on a major highway id be doing like 70. and it would take me ther faster.





is there a way i can change the mph for a car when getting directions? thanks.|||NO u cannot......the drive time is based on the set speed limits on the roads u will be taking............also if available it factors in traffic and or road construction and other factors...|||No, you can't change it.


I believe they track it based on speed limits for the roads that you've been routed through.





Anyway, you can figure it out yourself. Math is fun!|||I don't see how changing the speed can alter the directions. You still go the same way whether you are traveling at 20mph or 200 mph

Your site most likely will first get a fresh crawl in which only pages Google deems most important are crawled. After Google runs a deep crawl of your site, most, if not all of the pages on your website that contain links from other pages will be crawled and subsequently listed on Google, except pages that are included in the file robots.txt, which lists pages that you don鈥檛 want Google to crawl and pages containing code that Google is unable to parse.|||Submitting to most search engines is free, and each usually has some kind of online form or instructions to do it. Google has pages worth of info on how to submit your site and optimize it. Check the help section of the search engine, you can usually find it there.

Woman sues Google over directions claiming it supplied unsafe directions?

A pedestrian injured by a motorist while following an online route has filed a lawsuit claiming Google supplied unsafe directions.





Lauren Rosenbe used her phone in January to download directions from one end of Park City to the other. Google Maps led her to a four-lane street without footpaths that was "not reasonably safe for pedestrians," according to the lawsuit filed by the California resident.





The case has become a sensation on tech blogs, websites and cable television channels, with critics assailing the woman for ignoring her own safety to blindly follow online directions.

If it was the real Google, they would be happy to give you their phone number. (Google do not phone people regarding Google Maps).|||No.|||Never give out personal informations to strangers over the Internet.

If I were to follow google maps directions would I be treated like an illegal immigrant in the UK...?

instead of a tourist?





I did google directions from my city to Honolulu Hawaii, and it took me to washington state and then told me to Kayak 2756 miles across the pacific ocean to Honolulu :P The total travel time was 15 days and 21 hours.





This question is under the premise in which I Kayak across the Atlantic ocean. :P|||Google is a complete joke!





I asked it for directions to a state park in Chicago to camp with my boys before going to Six Flags and it directed me to a nuclear plant where I was greeted by guards with M-16's. After checking my van the guards said they get about 10 cars a day for the same reason and that google wouldn't even return their phone calls about fixing the map.

How can you correct the mistakes that google, yahoo and mapquest made on the address of our home, directions?

On entering our address to give directions to our home I discovered they have a big error. We live on road, they give directions to a small street which is called a trace; which is way wrong. Since then I have found many mistakes in our community, where do you contact these map companies?|||http://maps.google.com/support/bin/reque鈥?/a> %26lt;%26lt;go there to contact google, go here to contact yahoo: http://help.yahoo.com/fast/help/us/maps/鈥?/a> and go here to contact mapquest-http://www.mapquest.com/features/main.ad鈥?/a> or http://www.mapquest.com/features/main.ad鈥?/a>
