I use this website alll the time, and find it ten times more accurate than simply entering time and speed walked into the MFP calculator... It uses google maps so you can accurately log the route you walked, then it uses the map to work out gradients for a more accurate reading. You can also enter your speed, or time taken, plus your weight and it calculates calories burned according to route, weight, speed and distance.

Just thought I'd spread the word for anyone interested. The site is listed below;

    i use the endomondo app on my phone ,(android phone not iphone) it also uses gps and calculates your speed, time and cal burned based on your height weight gender and age. It also syncs with MFP which is nice But it does not work out hills ....

    I use gmap-pedometer.com. Also uses google maps and will track changes in elevation as well as calories burned either while walking/running or bicycling
