Excitement levels: extremely high

There is a new Fast & The Furious movie coming out, called..."Fast & Furious." Thanks to Borders for directing me to the trailer. Looks awesome! Can't wait.

Re-enact Bullitt With GPS Maps | Autopia from Wired.com

Pretty damn cool. I've seen Google Maps user maps before that show the route, but this is even better, as the video plays in sync with a moving icon on the map. Interesting to see how much they jump from one location to another in SF. I always assumed that the end of the chase was up in Marin, but it turns out to be on the NE side of the large preserve above South SF.
