270 - Eastern Suburbs

Day 270. I found these satellite images on Google Earth. These are aerial shots of some of Sydney's most well known beaches... Bondi, Bronte, Maroubra and Tamarama. Dropped into Diptic and arranged for today's daily create.

200 - On Track

Day 200. I'm now 200 days into this project, and it's been fascinating to keep coming up with something creative each day. I've gotten a little behind with my posts lately, but this one gets me back on track again, with this 200th post being created on the 200th day.

So to mark both the 200th post and getting back on track again, I made this collage of Number 200 bus routes. Turns out there is a Route 200 bus in Adelaide, Melbourne, Brisbane and Canberra, and these maps show them. Placed next to each other like this, I think they look quite good together, but then I am definitely a self confessed map nerd, so anything with a map in it looks good to me.

099 - The Distance Conundrum

Day 99. This little maths problem is something that has puzzled me for a while now, but I've never really gotten an answer to it that I felt satisfied with. So today I happened to to find a really good maths forum on the StackOverflow site that lets you ask a maths question and get answers from some very smart sounding people. So I put this little video together to help make my question clear. The images were made using Google Maps and Google Slides, then captured using Camtasia Studio.

Do you know the answer? Can you explain it clearly? Feel free to suggest your ideas in the comments below.
