I build roads out from my base/settlement to a degree, but rarely to connect to anything unless something of significance is nearby. I will build a road down to the beach or for a stretch through the desert, as it gives me the excuse to mine a lot of sand. I will mine out the sand on the route I wish to build on down to stone, fill it with cobblestone, and then pave the road with sandstone. Gets rid of a lot of cobble, gets me a ton of sand, and looks good. I just have to make sure I watch the sky as I don't need to be working into the night and have a creeper plop down on my head.

In the real world, you stick your head in the dirt to hide from problems.
In Minecraft, you stick your head in the dirt to find problems.
Another fun one to try, if you feel like it, is a boat riding over flowerpots. You push it onto them with a piston, and it keeps going...It sorta works like rail.
This is cool. Looks a bit like a monorail in a city.
I wonder if this would be considered cheating in a vanilla world, since I'm guessing the developers didn't intend for this to happen.
I think the fastest way to travel by land is by taking a horse on a road (or tunnel) through the Nether. Correct me if I'm wrong.
