Mapnificent Shows Where You Can Get To in 15

Mapnificent is a cool little web app that shows on a Google map where you can get to from your present location.  It’s only available for a limited number of locations at the present time, but some granular configuration options make it worth playing around with if you happen to be in one of them.

Default settings allow you to drop a pin on the map, which then highlights an area reachable within 15 minutes by public transportation.  A slider allows you to shorten or lengthen the time window and a check box allows you to factor in having a bicycle to aid in covering ground.

What will they think of next?
