#19 2.0 Awards

Checking out the awards, and looking at the Mapping category, and the winner Wayfaring - it uses GoggleMaps and has both map & satellite - when I stumbled upon "Great Lakes Ship Wrecks" (it's all serendipity!), so then I wanted to find the Edmund Fitzgerald ('cos of the Gordon Lightfoot song) it had a description in the entry: over 1,ooo ships have been lost in the Great Lakes & at the time, 1975, it was the worst. There's a site to the wreck

Also someone had put in the location of all the libraries in South East Los Angeles. Sites like this would be a boon to all those GPS users and Geo-cache players.

Liked the star ratings for content & usability etc on the nominees.
