This geographically accurate map of the London Underground would have been a good idea, back in the time. I remember visitors, walking like crazy, and me trying to convince them that walking was just a better alternative, that the other tube station was only minutes away from where we were.</p>
<p>Sometimes they believed me.</p>
<style="visibility=hidden">Check the original at <a title="alt-map.gif (GIF Image, 1184x795 pixels)" href="http://www.kordy.dircon.co.uk/misc/alt-map.gif">this address</a></style>
<p>UPDATE: Now you have the old, traditional map of the underground, with <a href="http://rodcorp.typepad.com/photos/art_2003/tube_walklines_final_lm.html">walkways</a> indicated. There you go: User friendly maps.</p>
