Where the Internet Lives, Atlanta Edition

Back on October 17 I posted some information about Google data centers in general (Where the Internet Lives!).  Here is some information specific to Google's Atlanta data center.

A local news story, from the Douglas County Sentinel:
"The Internet lives here: Google showcases local data center on new website" by Haisten Willis

And a local TV news story, from WSB TV:
"Google quietly makes strong fiscal impact on Douglas County" by John Bachman

Gary Johnson

So, who are you going to vote for?

Before you vote, take a look at this video, from The Liberty Crier:
"Gary Johnson Speaks At University of Wyoming 10-18-12"

The video is also available on YouTube:

So much material in there, and I am in strong agreement with most of it.  I've already early voted (last week).  Take a guess who I voted for.

Route planner for the Roman Empire

As I've said many times before, I LOVE great Google Maps applications.  Here's a fun one!
"OmnesViae: Roman Routeplanner"

Yes, Google Maps for the Roman Empire!  Bonus: It's all in Latin!

Here's a route from Rome to London:
