Google Map of Schools & Pot Dispensaries

School-Pot Map

Marijuana policy is a hot topic in California right now. Proposition 19, which would legalise various marijuana-related activities, is being voted on next Tuesday.

In an effort to help inform voters School-Pot Map shows the walking distances from San Francisco public schools to the nearest marijuana dispensary. For example, Marshall Elementary is only 142.2 yards from the nearest dispensary.

The marijuana dispensaries and the school locations are based on data from the San Francisco Department of Public Health and the San Francisco Unified School District.

3D panoramas of the protests in France

We first mentioned the excellent 360cities.net more than two years ago, and the site has been improving ever since.

They often post panoramas of current events and while the protests in France seem to be easing up, they were quite a big deal for a few days. 360cities captured some stunning panoramas of the protests, such as the one below:

They have quite a few more of them, and they're equally striking. Check them all out on the 360cities blog. You can also view panoramas from 360cities directly in Google Earth using their layer.

Have you submitted any panoramas to 360cities? Leave a comment and share the link with us so we can check it out.

What will those soccer hooligans get up to next? It appears that Google aren't fans of English soccer team Newcastle United as they have drawn a huge penis over their ground, St James Park.

Area 51 - Google Reviews

If this review for Area 51 is anything to go by not everyone is happy with the service they receive at Area 51 in the USA. The text reads:

"Poorly treated. I found that on arriving from my home planet of Diuahdhajissiannsa I was brought to this horrible place. I was extremely mistreated and was often probed. Would not recommend."
