Thank you Google maps

I just got an email telling me how many counties and cities I have been to in the past month and how many places and how many are new, how many miles I have driven and how many hours I have been behind the wheel.

Why? And why has this just started? I don’t care, I obviously have a GPS in my car. Not worried about Big Brother (yet, I use the word “yet”), just curious. Do some people need this info?

It could be pretty useful establishing an alibi if you’re ever accused of something.

I’ve gotten this for years. I enjoy reminiscing.

Thanks for the earworm.

Google Timeline. It takes me a few minutes to figure out why I went to some of the places shown.

I got that same email today. I liked that it showed me the percentage of the earth’s circumference that I’ve traveled.

Yes, ‘78 was a good year! :beers:

I’ve gotten them monthly for years. I find it interesting how widely or not I’m traveling. I used to travel enough miles to circumnavigate the globe annually but since covid I’m at like 25% of the way around and some months I don’t even travel 1,000 miles.

Or checking on a cheating spouse.

I wish it would remind me of how uncomfortable some of my travel
destinations were. Mostly doctor stuff.
It seems that’s all I ever do, these days.
