I love that MapQuest somehow still exists like 20 years after Google Maps was launched. That it's apparently run by the last decent human being in the tech industry is just a nice bonus.
It was one of the few survivors of the .com crash, though by that point it was owned by either AOL or Verizon, i believe. Of course I didn't even realize it was still around until a few days ago.
I remember when my wife (girlfriend at the time) moved here. I went to AAA with my mom for a map, and they printed up a booklet with page-by-page directions from Chicago to Rhode Island. Wonder if I still have that somewhere, it'd be a neat relic.
