Google Maps

I had a fantastic idea for a blog entry which got lost somewhere while on my way to write this. I could make a really bad joke about “why don’t you go find it? It’s probably near Sheffield” as a sly way of announcing Google’s launch of its UK maps service, but that poor attempt at humour would decrease my street credibility faster than I could say “I love S Club”. In other words, I had what I at first thought might be an amusing way to introduce this topic, realised it wasn’t amusing at all, then deconstructed it in a semi-self-deprecating way for laughs. And then mentioned what I was doing in order to excuse what was probably still a poor attempt at humour and still not amusing at all. And before I go on for ever, here’s the end of the internet.

Update: And now I’m not even sure this entry makes sense. Serves me right for watching Jeremy Paxman interview Tony Blair – the Rottweiler vs. the Weasel – it’s messed with my brain…

Update the second: It’s because he weasels his way out of things, okay?

Update the third: Man, I appear to be talking less sense than Michael Howard today. Normal service will resume once I’ve got some sleep.
