Distance Check by Veign
« on: May 12, 2007, 12:05 AM »
A fun little online application that calculates the distance between two zip codes.  The distance is calculated and general information about each zip code, a map for each zip code and approximate driving time is displayed.

Why?

Like most stuff I do its practice.  This one was practicing with Zip Codes and calculating zip codes that may fall within a certain radius of others.  The best way for me to practice is to make something and usually after its made I create a website out of it in case others find some use.

As always, if you have an idea for something please let me know.

This just came up in my Google Alerts so I thought I would update it.  Distance Check went through a major upgrade so check it out.

Did you try typing in the town or city?  See the drop-down of suggestions with zip codes?

To be honest, I overlooked that on my first visit.
The drop-downs certainly make things more helpful (except for areas large enough to have multiple codes).

I just now came across this thread and only by happenstance. I just wanted to say: Exactly what I needed! Perfect! One of those things that it would never have occurred to me to search out. It will save me hours of work and, no doubt, multiple mistakes. 

Thanks!
