This was during the wild frontier days of online road maps about ten years ago, when MapQuest was king and Google Maps was but a gleam in the eye of a couple of Danish guys in Australia. MapBlast never seemed to me to be more than a minor player during these days, but it had one special feature that made it my website of choice for route planning: LineDrive directions. ## Facts - Kind: [Page](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/kinds/page/) ## Saved the same week - [Why We Buy: How to Avoid 10 Costly Cognitive Biases](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/2475efa4ebe6/) (spring.org.uk, April 4, 2011) - [Mirror your Pinboard bookmarks with OpenMeta tags](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/cda0df54a78e/) (brettterpstra.com, April 4, 2011) - [Big Map Blog | Interesting maps, historical maps, but above all, BIG maps.](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/6edd0abaed1b/) (bigmapblog.com, April 5, 2011) - [Lookwork™](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/f9c2ac8dd04d/) (lookwork.org, April 5, 2011) - [Lookwork](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/ee346b33089e/) (lookwork.com, April 5, 2011) ## Elsewhere - Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/http://somethingaboutmaps.wordpress.com/2011/03/08/remembering-linedrive/
