Authors:
Wector was conceptualized and created by two undergraduate students at Cornell - Palash Agarwal and Karun Singh.
How did this start?
While looking for hackathons to attend in the school year, we were frustrated by the number of times we had to check how far other universities are from Cornell. Hence, we came up with the idea of Wector: a browser extension that would automate this process for us, and condense five tedious steps into one.

Brilliant execution! Took me seconds to set up. And even though my address is in Japan, Wector got it right away. |

Fantastic and inobtrusive interface that tells me the time I would take to get to any destination without even clicking on the link of the website. Would definitely recommend for its incredible convenience. |

Really good...I have a sales job,which requires me to run to head offices of companies.I use it to know the distance and time to their offices ,just by highlighting their name. |
