The Idea

Software that integrates your daytimer with google or yahoo maps. It maps the addresses of contacts and downloads, to your PDA, driving instructions (or maps) from one appt to another.

I thought of this idea when I was...

copying & pasting the driving directions from mapquest to my outlook calendar item. It could also track the travel time and the distance traveled automatically, for mileage tracking, as well as emissions tracking (might be necessary one day for government environmental programs). When searching Google I found this link, but it doesn't work in Outlook 2003: http://www.outlook-t...howto/displaymap.htm
