Google Maps/Last.fm
This website is awesome because it can show me not only who is in town playing a show, but because of the google map aspect, can show me where the venue is, and how to get there. Can't complain about that! The site also gives all the information about the show (ie: start time, cost, age), as well as links to the artist.

Google ajax feeds/Google maps
I like this site for a couple reasons. Not only does it show all the locations of the teams in the NBA, but hovering over each team gives the most recent news, stats, scores, and blogs of that team. The top bar also offers the same options, for the NBA as a whole. Another thing that is helpful is the traffic option. You turn it on, and it gives the traffic in the vicinity of the arena, so you know what you are getting into before you head out to the game, and for anyone who has tried to drive from the City (SF) to the Town (Oakland) for a Warriors game, this is REAL helpful.

Google maps/ GPS
I like this website because I like to hike with my friends on the weekends. The site uses google maps to show you where the trails are, and then after clicking on a region you would like to explore, gets the GPS information about the trail, and gives you images of the terrain you should expect to encounter. It also provides the length of the trails, suggestions of simalar ones to go on, spots to enjoy the scenery, etc. This site is real helpful.
