I've used enough of Google's products by now to know that the word "better" in this title is probably inaccurate. :)

I'm looking forward to the momentum this will give OpenStreetMap through the sheer annoyance at Google.

But I sure wish Google would stop trying to read my mind and just do what I tell it to. Guess the descent is inevitable, since we're the commodity we have to fight with the service, explicitly or implicitly. But oh how I yearn for the days of old when they pretended to be nice.

It is going to be "better." For Google.
