When some people get together they sit and watch T.V. or even play cards while talking about the good ‘ol days. However, bring a guy named Phil Taylor into your group and he’ll make your uneventful afternoon get together into a rock climbing exercise.
Even if you’ve never climbed a rock, this is still a lot of fun. Its all about body-weight movment and distribution while climbing so slacklining is a great exercise.
A few of us gave it a try. After quite a bit of falling, I finally stood up…for about 2 seconds before I flipped off.

As many of you know, Google launched Google Maps awhile ago. If you haven’t seen it, go check it out.
Yesterday they developed an API (application program interface) that allows developers to use the power of their system on your sites.
I’ve been playing around with it for a few hours and though I don’t know this stuff very well, I managed to hack together my own Google Maps on my site.
