One of my favorite features of the new Yahoo Maps is their multipoint directions. Has Yahoo’s new flash-based application outdone the competition?

“YouTube is so over. What’s that? How can it be over when you don’t even know what it is? Of course you know what it is. It’s been written about in the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, the Mercury News, Newsweek, the Los Angeles Times, the Washington Post, USA Today, Fortune, Time and on blogs, blogs and more blogs”

Ok, so I am a pretty frugal guy and have been wanting a good digital SLR for years now, ever since the original digital rebel came out. Last night, I placed the order for my Rebel XT.

I wanted to get the order in prior to the expiration of Canon’s spring rebate, which ends July 15th.

I ended up purchasing from

buydig, after seeing them recommended on fatwallet. They were a good bit lower than amazon and have pretty good feedback on resellerratings. I also got a 2GB SanDisk Ultra II Compactflash card (from amazon).I’ll be using the EF lens that came with my Rebel G, until I’m ready to purchase a better lens.

I’ll keep you posted on how and when the camera arrives, and my experience with it!
