What Are You Doing Right Now

Am I the only one that likes Yahoo Maps better than Google Maps? I've just started using it recently and like it better. It doesn't seem to have the updating glitches that Google always has.

No, it's on Chrome on desktops. Google Maps never seems to update the page since they went to their new update several months ago. I never use Google Maps on my iPhone, only Apple Maps.
On no computer I've used since Google did their update has their maps worked. It always fails to update part of the screen or doesn't zoom in or out. It loads part of the screen then fails. I've probably tested on eight machines or so. If you mess with it enough you can get a map loaded enough to use, but it is really buggy.

aww... I guess I haven't done a map in a while.

I haven't had any issues with google maps on my windows desktop or my chromebook. I use google maps a few times a week. No issues here.

Wondering why the IT industry seems rife with FUD (more so than other industries)

Because it is complex and widely needed. So lots of people are dealing with things that appear as magic, to them.

Yahoo does maps? I guess it's no real surprise considering Google, Apple and Bing have mapping services.
I'll have to have a look at that. -
I had no idea. It's because I am using Firefox and that is the default search engine and sometimes I don't change it and it started taking me to Yahoo Maps and I was like "oh wow, Google fixed their maps... oh wait, it's not Google."
It is also much better about not using up all of the screen real estate for stuff that you don't need.
