Google are certainly trying to take over the world. I need to push away from them, get rid of (all my, not just gmail) third party email accounts.
Why this? With their recent announcement of MapMaker, it’s seen as a direct competitor to OSM. And that’s not good for the community, or is it?
Some have speculated that “they’ll” come over to OSM when they discover that that have no rights and many of the liabilities over their work!
Don’t be evil, really Google, stick up to your motto.
Of course, those familiar with this sort of thing will remember People’s Map (which already has a few of my own brand copyright easter eggs embedded into it!)
Let’s see if we can do any interesting selective mapping on GMM!
