Slidey fun.... it's mapumental!

Here's a web resource that I hope someone like Google jumps on so that the rest of the world can enjoy it. This first-stab is a UK project, still in private beta testing. It's called Mapumental and the idea is that by centering the map where you work and using the housing price, transit time and scenic-ness sliders, you can find optimal places to live based on whether they meet your criteria for price, time in transit to work and prettiness.

How cool is that? Check out the video on their site.
