Google gadgets for freight companies

Been looking around for some Google gadgets to help out freight companies who need some support.
Go to:

Look for the Free tools link.
If you find anymore that would be worth including please let me know

Freight costing for free

I get a lot of people asking after software for transport management. They tell me that they are a small operation with a couple of vehicles. Quite often I hear that they currently quote clients by accessing whereis or google maps. They figure out how far it is and quote a cost based on that.
Now I don't want to put myself out of a job but if they feel they really can't afford an entire package ... well I thought I would create a free tool to help:

Look for the link to "Freight calculation"
It will let you set the flag fall, rate per mile/km and other rating options and then you can calculate the distance (as well as getting driving instructions).
Use it as much as you want, hope it benefits someone.
Let me know if there is anything else you would like included.
