Fun with Google Earth

I got my GPS reciever back today, and in the car on the way home I thought that I’d put it to use, so a bit of wardriving with Kismac was in order. It appears to have been seriously updated since I last used it – you can now save the points directly to a file to load into Google Earth. Just with the PowerBook sat on the passenger seat, no external aerial it still managed to pick up a lot of access points, so I’ll take a different route through town tomorrow, and extend the survey – maybe when it’s a bit more complete I’ll actually upload it and share it with all of you out there in Aberystwyth.

I’ve also been mapping some of the places I visited in France, mainly where I took photos and such, and I’ll upload those when I’m done with them – I’m not sure if I can be bothered to map the whole route, but I’ve got all the overnight stops and that gives you a pretty good idea of how far I travelled.
