Nike + iPod + Google Maps = Runometer
Here's something I've been wishing the Nikeplus.com site to implement itself: integration with Google Maps. Not ones to wait around for giant companies to switch on niche features, a small software company by the name of Gordian Labs has created the Runometer, a not-quite-even-beta mashup that lets you view and compare your Nike+ running data, as well as plot out your runs on Google Maps. By providing software and/or instructions for Mac OS X, Windows and even Linux, Nike+ owners can upload their run data, sketches of their routes or even GPS data for the ultimate in geek running goodness. A handy how-to guide is provided to help you get on your feet, but you'd better get moving - Runometer users have already ran over 1000 miles and plotted 284 routes![via Engadget]

Great idea: "Here's the route i take every Thursday at 4pm. Meet me there with some duct tape and a switchblade."
Better yet, check out this wordpress plugin: http://www.ear-fung.us/apps/nikeplus/

I really hope that the iPhone is compatible with the Nike+ system.
I'm saving up for an iPhone and want to be able to run with it and not have to buy a nano too.
I really wish the iPhone had GPS too.
Then things would get really interesting.

Mark - You don't need to worry about things that don't happen. Relax. It's all going to be okay.
