Wait, They Don't Love You Like I Love Maps

083105_googlemaps.jpgSomeone has finally come along and hacked Google Maps so we can have a SEPTA Google Map. Granted, we're not ones to get lost going east and west on the Blue Line, or North and South on the Orange Line, but still, it's nice to open up a hacked map and see it dedicated to our fair city.

The mapmaker currently doesn't plan to add bus lines. That's kind of disappointing since it will be very incomplete, but kind of encouraging since there will be less arrows cluttering up the pretty map. Plus, we don't ride buses.

Coming up soon: Phillyist hacks Google Maps to show you, dear reader, where we like to get our cabs. (Note: we're not actually making this map, we just wanted a conclusion.)
