marine traffic (click on 'world map' if it doesn't show up automatically) well I think it's cool. you can zoom in on an area, and see all the tankers, cargo ships, etc. click on them, see pictures, and details.The English channel looks nuts! I wouldn't want to be crossing in some little pleasure yacht.

Staight of Gibraltar is pretty cool. Funny, no data in much of SE Asia. I'll bet the strait of Malacca would be intense too. |

Very cool - I found the Odyssey Explorer (anyone else watch that Discovery Channel show?). It's doing a back & forth sonar sweep in the English Channel, off the coast of France, right now. |
