Digging a hole

Sometimes I wonder, "if I just started digging a hole of infinite depth, where would I end up?" If you wonder that too, you might like this cool Google maps application that a resourceful Brazilian has designed to figure that out for you. You click where in the world your hole will start, and it shows you where your hole will end. For example, I learned that if I dig a hole in my backyard in Washington, DC through the center of the earth, my hole will end in the Indian Ocean slightly southwest of Australia. (via Lifehacker)
