Firstly – I’ve gone on record saying “Maps are sooo 2001” – because they are.  This is just something I found interesting - I was riding the subway in New York today. When I looked up I saw an ad for the new www.mta.info site which gives better directions on how to use the subway and busses.

They actually printed a powered by Microsoft Virtual Earth on the in-train ad!

The site itself is somewhat slick, I’d love for all of that data to get exposed so developers could easily pull into your own apps.
