    Anyone know how to get from Haugesund to Trondheim in Norway? Well, neither do I, but why not get directions online?

    Go to the MSN Maps & Directions site: http://mappoint.msn.com/DirectionsFind.aspx

    Enter the following:

    Start Address in: Norway
    Start City: Haugesund

    End Address in: Norway
    End City: Trondheim

    Get directions!

    In case it wasn't obvious, I'm in no way making fun of Norway but rather pointing out how shit Microsoft's maps and direction service is (not unlike a lot of their software). /versus/images/graemlins/smile.gif

    Can't get there from here

    It's the old adage "you can't get there from here." You must go somewhere else first, like England or Germany.

    LOL

    Mapquest screwed me over once before. My girlfriend and I were supposed to go to this free pre-screening of EUROTRIP some time back. So we got the directions off Mapquest.com and then went on our merry way. The damn directions took us to some forresty place where it was painfully obvious that there would be no movie theatres around. We got really late and decided not to go watch the movie.

    Screw you mapquest.com! *shakes fist*

    There was a "turn on local road" when we went to a NYC gathering. It was very hilarious.
