Interactive map of Seattle

As you prepare for the Annual Conference in Seattle, check out Schmap, an interactive web site with maps, photos, and other information.  There is a Schmap specifically for Seattle.

BTW Schmap periodically looks at photos in Flickr to locate photos that will help it illustrate what an area looks like.  If you take photos in Seattle, load them into Flickr (and tag them), you may find that you'll get a message from Schmap asking if they can use your photo.  There is no payment, just proper attribute and a few moments of fame.

Something is off with this map! I looked at restaurants in various neighborhoods and the locations are several miles away.

Do you mean that the map is placing them in the wrong location OR that the restaurants just aren't near the convention center?

Looking at MapQuest and Google Maps, I found that there is a lot of activity (hotels, etc.) well away from the convention center. The less expensive hotels are, in fact, a hefty walk away from the convention center.
