I love the surface pressure charts - it's the only way I can really see what's going on with the weather, very disappointing that they rarely show these on telly now.

Like the old maps although nothing has changed where I grew up hence we still have that map!
That ponies site is very useful in my line of work i.e. looking at old road layouts before by-passes etc.
Old Maps is great when looking at how cities spread. If you fancy looking how Manchester was laid out in 1772 try: http://manchester.publicprofiler.org/beta/index.php

Quite the opposite here, Saltdean on the edge of Brighton where I am doesn't exist in 1920 except for some coastguard cottages. Sadly Balsdean which does appear on the map and which I regularly ride through disappeared under Canadian shell fire during the war.
dammit - just wasted a bit of a sunny day looking at photoshop troll!

I love the Live Air Traffic Map, I can see the flights leaving heathrow from my window (4th Floor a couple of miles away) and I can see where they're going!
Doesn't show up the Eurofighter which I assume is coming from RAF Northolt doing practises for the 'lympix.
No one noticed this yet??

When i was a lad, there was only one germany, there was no soviet union or yogoslavia, instead there was latvia, and lithuania, and estonia, and bosnia-herzegovina, serbia and croatia, kazakhstan, uzbekistan... and then it all changed. Then it all changed back again. This changes cost millions of lives. But they didn't cost me a penny because I've still got my old map.

I've got a set of plans of glasgow before the M8 was built - large enough scale to show individual house numbers and the names of businesses. Drawn on in coloured pencil in the new motorway, along with all the bits that were planned and never got built. Found them in a skip.
