Google Maps and Subway Stations
Scott points out several mapping bits… The coolest of which is that Google Maps now shows subway stations in NYC when you are at one of the top 3 most magnified spots. That’s really handy! There’s only two things that would make my life complete (as far as mapping software goes) first and most important is to work this into my Google Maps treo client. That’s really when I’d most need it, while I’m out and about. The next and only slightly less important would also be to show all the entrances for each subway stop instead of only the main one. Some of these stops spew forth entrances for blocks around and it’d be really nice to be able to find the most convenient one.

Just a note, http://www.onnyturf.com has had this with actual train paths (think the MTA subway map superimposed on Google maps) for quite some time now. Made my apartment hunt much easier, as I could gage which apartments were closest to the subway line I wanted.
