Google Gets on the Bus

Google Maps, arguably the coolest free mapping program known to mankind, just got a little cooler.

Earlier this month, google unveiled a new option when searching for directions to map your route on local public transportation.


This little tool is incredibly easy to use and allows you to program either your desired start time or desired arrival time to get an exactly schedule for your trip.

With gas prices up and unlikely to go down this seems like a good time to get on the bus.

Huzzah! for public transportation.
