Lengthfinder - Google Maps based app for measuring distances
LengthFinder is a Google Maps based page that allows you to interactively plot a path on a map, and display the length of that route.
The developer is Australian, so the map (or actually satellite image) comes up centred on Sydney, and distances are given in Km only. There is also a conversion to walking/cycling time - I guess they walk slow in the Australian heat since the conversion assumes just 4Km per hour walking pace!
