Looks fantastic! There is also an API and documentation available at http://api.tfl.gov.uk . Disclaimer: I'm part of the combined TfL and BAE Systems Applied Intelligence team (née Detica) that did the build and architecture, along with the great folks at We Are Experience and Attenda.

Is there an API for Oyster balances yet? (or planned?) I ask as someone slightly concerned by popular apps which seem to rely on you giving some third party your TFL login for them to scrape it for you... Very happy to see that TFL have done as much as they have though. Lovely to see :)
Edit: ha, beat me to it alex :)
This is pretty neat. We've had one[1] in Czech Rep. for a while but the UI is a little busy (and the adverts are a pain) so this TfL one is much nicer [1] - http://idos.cz

Can you send me a link to the journey planner results? There is no specific way to contribute improvements to the results, best way for now would be to leave feedback through the form in the title bar of the new website. Edit: You also might get some mileage out of setting your walking speed to "Fast" and selecting "Routes with fewest changes"
Choosing 'fast walking' and 'routes with fewest changes' sort of worked, but it still shows a walking route which doesn't use the pedestrian-only bridge: http://www.tfl.gov.uk/plan-a-journey/results?IsAsync=true&Jp...
This is really good. To give an international perspective, this is what I was used to as a Dutch person: http://9292.nl/ I didn't realise how great that website was until I moved to Sweden to study. This is what is available here: http://www.reseplaneraren.skanetrafiken.se/querypage_adv.asp... I've noticed that I used public transport on long distances a lot more when the website was a lot easier to use.
I have to agree on that, however I moved in the opposite way. Back in Sweden I just found it easier to download the route maps of the cities and just manually follow the routes to determine the best place to get on/off or switch. Also these travel planners that are available for Sweden (or at least 2000's) didn't really work well when you want to travel between cities. 9292ov.nl helped me out tons when I moved here,…
Never thought I would defend Västtrafik(public transport in south west Sweden) but here I go.
Their webpage http://www.vasttrafik.se/ is quite usable. It finds good routes and you can fiddle around with different parameters such as times for changes etc. You can say that you are willing to walk or take a bike part of the way as well. Overall pretty good as long as you are on a computer.
On a phone the default app is not so good. Instead use ResOplanerare which has a very minimal and slick interface.
Cannot do a search. The menu items are on top of it.
Cannot close the information box about cookies.
Overall, a very good initiative.
