Google Maps has put a small Kansas town...on the map, so to speak. The default "center" of Google Maps is Coffeyville, KS -- more specifically, Kristine Crispel's horse farm, just outside of town. As with anything arbitrarily given iconic value online, it's become a Mecca for the electronically enhanced. GPS-guided netizens make pilgrimages to the 'spot', simply to prove that they're there; I suppose they can stand there, look up, and think to themselves how many monitors they're staring out from, right at that moment.
