Google Prognosticator!
Oh yeah, I rock! Somewhere back like over a year and a half ago I had a great idea for how I wanted Google Maps to work.
My original post went into full detail on all kinds of neat stuff I wanted Google Maps to be able to do, and proposed how such features might work. Well guess what? They did it!
Sure, it would be nice to think that someone at Google stumbled on my suggestions and pitched it to the development team. But sadly, it's probably more likely that geek minds think alike and they came up with it independently. BUT! I still can claim I thought of it all on my own and had no idea that they would actually do it. So now I can do a self-congratulatory happy dance while I play with the exact functionality I had imagined. Check it out!
Thank you, Google! :D
