Like everything else, advertising pressure has ruined it. You can still search, but just zoom in and look over an area to see what is there? So many businesses missing, because they don’t pay Google to advertise. Apple Maps shows them all, because they don’t make money from advertising.

Open Street Maps are ok, but my area has a lot of businesses missing. If you know the address you need to go to, then it’s great for routing.

My personal hobby horse with Google killing things is Reader.

I feel dumb using Google Maps and seeing all the ads. Should’ve known from day one that was the game plan.

Pray Apple keeps their hardware sales up.
