Who Wouldn’t Want Their Favourite Google Map Turned into Wooden Art?

I love Google Maps. Love, love, love it. I love Streetview even more, as readers of this fine blog might have noticed recently. Now you can preserve your favourite segments of Google Maps forever (well, for a LONG time) with Woodcut Maps new service.

Pick a segment of Google Maps that looks pretty. Ideas include your home, a vacation spot, where you proposed (or are GOING to propose) to your girlfriend (you’re welcome for the brilliant idea), select your materials, and BAM, 2 weeks later, get the Google Maps artwork sent to you.

There are a bunch of different sizes, such as 8×8 inches, up to 16×20 inches. The company just launched, so there is a tasty 30% discount. Check out the website for more details on pricing and the process (via Gizmodo). By the way, that’s Chicago in the pic below.
