		<title>Bad transit map redirect due to hosting upgrade</title>
		<description><![CDATA[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. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Cease-and-desist letter unlikely for transit map</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was mentioned again in the Toronto section of yesterday&#8217;s Globe And Mail, this time in an article on the TTC website redesign.  I can&#8217;t find the link online, but here&#8217;s the paragraph:

During the past year, the TTC went from sending a cease-and-desist letter to blogger John Martz for publishing a satirical subway map [...]]]></description>

		<title>Toronto transit map in print</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As I mentioned the other day, the National Post interviewed me on my transit map.  If all goes according to plan, the story should be in the Toronto Weekend section of Saturday&#8217;s paper, probably page 7.
Not to be outdone, I just got off the phone with the Globe And Mail, and they&#8217;re writing an [...]]]></description>

		<title>More love for the Toronto transit map</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been overwhelmed with the positive feedback for my transit map.  The news spread from the Livejournal Toronto community to Torontoist, then to the Spacing wire and Transit Toronto.  From there it spread to a slew of other sites, including the CityNews blog.  I also just came out of an interview with [...]]]></description>

		<title>Future Toronto Transit Map features</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Now that my Toronto transit map contains many of the features I envisioned when creating its predecessor, it&#8217;s time to think of new features I would like to add.  What follows are whatever features I can think of.  Most of these are pretty zany, involving tedious work, but who said a feature request [...]]]></description>

		<title>New tiles for the transit map</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Based on a user comment on the new map, I have added another zoom level to the Toronto transit map.  I didn&#8217;t do this before because Illustrator wouldn&#8217;t let me export a large enough image to PNG, in this case 13794 by 8192.  Instead I exported the image in two parts and collated [...]]]></description>

		<title>Creating the Toronto Transit Map</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As with my old subway map, the most difficult parts of creating the new map didn&#8217;t involve any programming.  The hardest and most time-consuming part by far was cleaning the TTC ride guide and projecting it onto Google&#8217;s tiles.  I made heavy use of Adobe Illustrator for this part, removing the unnecessary bits [...]]]></description>

		<title>TTC subway map upgraded to Toronto Transit Map</title>
		<description><![CDATA[About a year ago I played around with the Google Maps API and created a map containing the TTC subway system.  It wasn&#8217;t intended to be all that useful as the TTC&#8217;s own map contains much more information.  Still, that didn&#8217;t stop my map from rising to the top of the Google rankings [...]]]></description>
