I'm always amazed at the amount of information you need to compile good driving directions -- You'd have to consider thoroughfare choices, changing street layouts and traffic signs, and soon changes in traffic conditions.

But not as wrong as they get it in Norway.

Shiny Stainless R Us

This Japanese company makes all of the shiny stainless backpanels of iPods. (Apparently they also fabricated all of the titanium bodies for PowerBook G4s.) Cool.
