Five Kaleidoscope Robbers in Custody

Decatur Metro | July 22, 2008

…according to 11Alive.  Three are minors.  Suspect Charles Dunn is the only bandit yet to be caught…according to the AJC.

Since they’ve got these guys on tape, I assume this will be a pretty open and shut case.

Sweet.

Google Maps Incorporates MARTA

Decatur Metro | July 22, 2008

Don’t use Google Maps for directions because you don’t have a car? Well, that’s all changed!

Ryan points out that Google Maps now offers directions that can include public transit options at your request.

After asking for directions between any two points, just click the “Public Transit” option to the upper left.

Typing in zip codes for Decatur and downtown Atlanta, Google tells me how many minutes it takes to walk to the station, gives the departure times for 3 upcoming MARTA trains, the number and arrival time of the bus I need to hop after getting off the train, and finally the final walking time to my destination!

Another great Google innovation! Did MARTA just get a little easier?

(And yes, I know MARTA has a similar feature on their website, but trust me…they don’t compare)
