Mapping Hacks

Go to phorum board goosh.org is cool! It gives your browser a command line complete with command history, and you get a scrollback.

It supports searching wikipedia and google, including images, video, blogs, etc.

It also has a command line map mode. You can type ‘map ‘ and get a bit larger than thumbnail map. Location can be any of the search terms which google maps recognizes (but not the proximity searches - you can not look for ‘pizza near SFO’). Instead of ‘map’ you can also type ‘places’ or ‘p.’ (’m’ is reserved for ‘more’).
Goosh implements a simple command history with the up and down arrows.

I have made it my default home page.
