Googlemaps does walking directions

Well, this is just nifty. Google directions will now offer WALKING directions. So you can put it on your weddingmap, and offer driving alternatives. (Not available in all areas yet, of course). No bike routes yet, and oddly, no subways. You can use hopstop.com in NY, LI, NJ, Boston, Chicago, SF, and Wash DC for subway and bus routes, however.

A few thoughts: walking to the wedding

Locavore water?

Sparkling water, that is:
Il Fornello, an Italian restaurant down the block from my house, seems to have discovered "locavore water":

"..they are going even further down the green path with their local water. Instead of only serving San Pelligrino spring water that is bottled in Italy and shipped across the ocean to Toronto (How can this make sense?? transporting spring water around the planet?? total insanity), they are now bottling local spring water (and carbonating it) just outside of the city and serving it in their own green (literally) glass bottles. These bottles are reused by the company four times before they are recycled".
