It’s tough to claim this is productive, but on a Friday afternoon it might be just what you need: a tool that uses Google Maps to show you the exact opposite of any location on the globe, forever answering those childhood “can we dig our way to China?” questions.
The “sandwich” tool on zefrank.com is self-explanatory: just scroll around on one map and the matching point is displayed. Who knew Peru and Vietnam were polar opposites, as it were?

All of Australia in the Atlantic, I feel so bummed! I was hoping for a shortcut to somewhere nice!

I think this is interesting..especially today.
Report PermalinkHeard there was an earthquake in NZ…also one
of my hometown back in Va…wondered if they were
at or near global opposites.
Or if one was any relation to the other..
then while I was reading these stories I hear what i think is a sonic boom in Texas.
What in the “world” is going on?
