Live Traffic Feature on Google Maps is Finally Enabled for Pakistan

Image
The long awaited feature of “Live Traffic” details in Google Maps for Pakistani cities was something that we all wanted so badly, especially because we never know about Pakistani roads and traffic and often end up on a route to discover that its jam packed with bumper-to-bumper traffic. The news is that Live Traffic for Pakistani cities is now enabled, for selected routes for now. But since “live traffic” details are being rolled out in phases, you can expect more cities and routes to show “live traffic” details very soon. For now we can confirm you that live traffic is enabled for Islamabad and Lahore, while usual traffic details — such as traffic situation on a route for specific time — is enabled for more cities, almost for every city that we checked. As you can note, along with live traffic you can also see traffic incident details, such as if road is closed or if there’s an accident, construction going on or any other in...

Instants

by Sofia Zaman on Sunday, July 1, 2007  If I could live again my life, In the next - I'll try, - to make more mistakes, I won't try to be so perfect, I'll be more relaxed, I'll be more full - than I am now, In fact, I'll take fewer things seriously, I'll be less hygenic, I'll take more risks, I'll take more trips, I'll watch more sunsets, I'll climb more mountains, I'll swim more rivers, I'll go to more places - I've never been, I'll eat more ice creams and less (lime) beans, I'll have more real problems - and less imaginary ones, I was one of those people who live prudent and prolific lives - each minute of his life, Offcourse that I had moments of joy - but, if I could go back I'll try to have only good moments, If you don't know - thats what life is made of, Don't lose the now!

For only the price of a new set of wheels, Icelink will give you the keys to a Bentley Continental GT and the services of a bodyguard for one year . The catch : Icelink’s wheels, which are studded with diamonds and sapphires, are valued at one million dollars . Now in its fifth year, Top Marques bills itself as the “ only live supercar show in the world .” This is not meant to imply that there are plenty of dead supercar shows, floating face down somewhere in the cool blue waters of the French Riviera. The “live” part refers to the cars being drivable and not just static displays .
