Now this is cool! NOAA mapping

Saw this on SA:

NOAA

It overlays NOAA maps onto google maps, very nice. A bit slow but still good. Make sure to zoom in on the US to see the maps.

Nice try...but it is probably the server, not your machine.

Speaking of servers, does everyone else experience SailNet's sites stalling on a near-daily basis? I know it's not my machine, since connections to other sites are blazingly fast.

I've noticed that too.

That really is very neat. I checked it out early this morning and it was much quicker than it's running now - I'm sure the servers are bogging down.

I would like to play with it for a bit, so please everyone refrain from logging on until mid-afternoon. Thanks. Much appreciated.
