Gelateria Locations

I was looking for a way to plot the locations of all the gelaterias we are going to visit when I stumbled across this site: Batch Geocode. What you have to do is make a spreadsheet of all the addresses you want plotted, and then it "geocodes" them, or generates another spreadsheet that includes their exact longitudes and latitudes. Then you can view all the locations on a single map, which you can also view a satellite or hybrid version of, just like with GoogleEarth.

Here's a map of the gelaterias we plan on visiting (though unfortunately we may not get to all of them): Gelateria Locations. Isn't that pretty cool? Now everyone will know exactly where we are at all times!

In other news, if you look at the sidebar to the left you will see that now you can not only subscribe to this blog in a feed (ok, I admit I don't really actually know what that is), you can also enter your email address and all new posts will be sent to your email!
