981 Archives400m-long container ship Ever Given has been firmly stuck in the Suez Canal for days now, holding up traffic and slowing global trade. It's a terrible situation economically, but a hilarious one in pretty much every other respect, with the stranded ship providing ample fodder for memes and jokes. Now a new web app is letting users visualize what the Ever Given might look like wedged into other places as well.
Created by map enthusiast Garrett Dash Nelson, Glitch web app Ever Given Ever Ywhere allows users to plonk the large barge anywhere on a satellite map of the world. Want to drop it in the Hudson? Done. The Seine? No problem. Now you too can ruin everything by putting a big boat in places it shouldn't be.
You can hit a button to make the Ever Given roughly to scale, if you're curious about how it would look next to Dodger Stadium. Alternatively, you can grow, shrink, and rotate the vessel to suit your own needs, whether you want to block a backyard pool or the entire Pacific Ocean.

Unfortunately Ever Given Ever Ywhere is a bit tricky to use. You can't type in an address or location, so you have to manually move the map around to find the waterway you want to obstruct. I spent several frustrating minutes attempting to lodge the Ever Given in Sydney Harbour, but simply couldn't locate it.
However, if you're better at eyeballing geography than me, or care less about what you're blocking than the act of blocking itself, this app will provide a few minutes of world-trade-halting fun.
UPDATE: March 29, 2021, 2:55 p.m. AEDT The Ever Given has now been successfully refloated, putting an end to our global rubbernecking. Happily, anyone feeling nostalgic can still use the app to relive the glory.
