ACW & Bilbo: The biggest limiting factor of it (aside from the as-the-crow-flies distances) is the desirability factor of going to the places listed and that the only places listed are the ones that Google knows about (which apparently isn’t everything).

My home’s walk score is a mere 26, and looking at the places listed on which that score was based, they take a very generous view of what’s within walking distance…and what’s worth walking to. Neat idea, though!

My old neighborhood was 83. My current neighborhood is 31, and I don’t want to go to any of the places they recommended anyway.

DJ: Oh nifty. I’m tempted to buy this guy just to find out how much I really am walking. I’d guess its a few miles a day.

That’s cool. I got a score of 77. Not bad.
