On the road with Jack Kerouac and Google Maps

I wonder if today’s adolescents will get to know Jack Kerouac’s legendary novel through Google Maps first. Because, it’s possible.

Coming from an industrious German college student student, the “On the Road” project compiles all the roads, geographic stops and locations mentioned in the book and connects them in a single Google map, so adventurers everywhere can simply embark on a trip. It will take them around 272 hours and they will cover about 17,527 miles. Sounds like fun.
