Google Earth's "I am feeling lucky" feature with more ocean.

When you press the button, all events occur randomly and a completely random coordinate is generated for you in the world, then it opens on google maps. Unfortunately, since most of the world is ocean, I can't do a filtering for now, but in the 2nd version, I think I can solve this using a google earth api. thanks a lot for your comment

Nice!

Maybe consider adding this as a next step:

Thanks a lot for your comment. I'll look into this for version 2!

Kind of disappointed this isn’t some kind of Needful Things thing.

'Random Location' using Google Maps. This code is actually very simple. When you press the button. You will be in a random place in the world!
