www.streetdirectory.com

I had to make a trip to DSTA.

As always, I checked www.streetdirectory.com for directions.

The website returned me [bus1, mrt, bus2, walk] as the route to my destination.

But somehow, my "brilliant" memory told me that maybe I could just take one direct bus there from home. I checked SMRT's website for that bus and sure, my new route has been shortened to [bus2, walk].

Hm, I wonder how many detours I have made from my past dependence on streetdirectory.

From a consumer's perspective, I wonder if streetdirectory has any dealings with the major transport operators here.

From a programmer's perspective, I do understand it's not easy to build the streetdirectory expert system.

Hmm..what's the moral of the story?
