Bad transit map redirect due to hosting upgrade
On Monday my hosting service moved their servers. Ever since then requests on my site for URLs not ending in a backslash forward to crazedmonkey.nfshost.com. This means that if you access my transit map without including the backslash, the map will refuse to load because of inconsistencies with the Google Maps API key. I’ve opened a related ticket with my hosting service and hopefully they’ll fix the issue. In the meantime, please use the URL which works.

Avoid the honey in coffee shops
This morning after having bought my coffee, I went to grab the honey from the self-serve area. Noticing it was missing, I checked above the espresso machine to see if it was there. As it wasn’t, I asked someone for it and they went to get a fresh one. Upon his return, he told me that they were now keeping the honey behind the counter as “people were drinking it.” I wasn’t so much disgusted as I was upset at being told that fact now after months of adding saliva-laden honey to my coffee. Sometimes honesty isn’t the best policy.

Google Maps tile cutter on Google code
I’ve recently created a project for my command-line image tiler for Google Maps on Google Code. Coincidentally, the official Google Maps API blog linked to my tool on Monday so hopefully there will be some interest in playing around with it.
