A journey planner as in you put in a few destinations and the site calculates the distance and best route type of thing. or even shows u the route on a map.

damn dude, that is heavy programming, i don't think that will be in any means easy, but why don't you google for "php map searching" or something like that... u might get some results

that would require one MASSIVE database.

I have no idea where to even start.

i know a site that can do this tho, check it out at http://www.multimap.com and click directions at the top.
