Hmm, what about the Gmap Pedometer? <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.gmap-pedometer.com" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.gmap-pedometer.com</a><p>There is nothing on that site, or its forum, about any impending shutdown.<p>Been using that (on and off) for a very long time. The changelog goes back to mid-2005; just months after Google Maps was announced.<p>This site lets you build routes and save them as permanent objects that you can share links to. It&#x27;s useful for runners, cyclists, etc.<p>Just trying RouteBuilder: looks like a knockoff of Gmap Pedometer, only capable of connecting straight line segments (doesn&#x27;t follow roads). That is irrelevant though; both sites basically wrap Google Maps in the same way.
