What's Your Walk Score?
This cool new little maps application parses google maps to measure and grade the "walkability" of a location that you enter. A simple tool to measure how little or much you will need a car when living in a location.
It would be great to see the formula get the option to include transit of various types in a search. And perhaps a carbon calculator could be built in as well?llowing users to see the carbon requirements of adding non-walkable destinations to their list.
Additionally, I'd love to be able to customize the range considered "walkable". Maybe they'll release the API for Walk Score...

My house is a 96. Yeah Ballard. Not bad! I don't know what I would need to have closer to me to be a 100. Hummmm.
