Hopstop

You know, I still kind of feel like a newcomer to NY in some ways. When I first arrived, I didn't know one train from the next and I hated reading maps for some reason--before I had only used them for long road trips. I mean, nothing says 'I'm not a NYorker' more than a pulling out one of those large subway maps. Anyway, to save face and still navigate my way around town, I used Hopstop[1]. It gave me multiple routes and often provided 360 degree views of surrounding area near the exit--not to mentioned the big 'Walk that way'arrow.
