Me too Lincoln. something Charlie Fish linked to in another comment got me thinking about this. I often have to do this in Japan due to the lack of street names / numbers, and it's always interesting how different things look like from 10 miles up.
Yeah, I saw that google map narrative. Pretty awesome. I'm in favor of any kind of dérive. I dérive almost every day.
I like the original Dérive series of group specific tasks, and I like this one as well.
I guess I just like dérives.
