What could be more fun than using Google Maps to nuke any location on the Earth. To drop a bomb on your least favourite place is very easy. Use the search box to find your location, choose the size of bomb and drop away!
The screenshot above shows the impact of a 'Hiroshama' sized bomb dropped on my house. Hmm, maybe its not so much fun after all.
Dart On Map
Can't decide where to go on holiday? Let Dart On Map decide for you.
Dart on Map is a fun little map mash-up that let's you throw a dart at a Google Map to find a random location. If you do not want to travel the entire world you can select individual continents. You can even select your own custom area, so if you just want to decide where to go for a walk during the lunch break, that's also possible.
