Are We There Yet?
For many of us, born before cell phones, we used the Thomas Guide to navigate our way around town. Looking for an address or street? Pull out that trusty spiral-bound 5000 page atlas to forage your way through streets and cities.
Want to go on a cross country trip? Head down to your local AAA store to wait in line and map out your destination. Your route will easily be detailed on about 5 pounds of large fold out maps with a highlighted line directing you to your destination. After only a mere 20 minutes of frustrated hell, will you hone your map-folding skills and be able to handle one of those big, bad maps in the car! Oh, the joys of B.C. living. (Before Cell)
Today we have the convenience, luxury and simplicity of opening an app on our phone or car & simply texting or speaking the address into the device. We have the accuracy of global satellites navigating our way and at any moment, with a guarantee of finding the safest, fastest and less congested route to our destination. It really couldn't get any easier. Can you imagine driving now a days without having this information at your fingertips?
