| Wanna Go to the Lincoln Memorial? Don't Use Google Maps... |
| 2010-08-27 |
| H/T Instapundit ...you'll get directed to the nearby FDR Memorial instead. Instapundit posted on the problem last night and Google still hasn't gotten around to fixing it as of 7 am Eastern time. Mapquest and Bing Maps aren't playing dumb games like that today. I don't care if you like Glenn Beck or not. This is just stupid and immature. So much for "don't be evil", eh? |

| #10 DFMD, I pretty much use Bing for all my searches now. I'll only resort to Google if I can't find what I'm looking for with Bing (which hasn't happened yet). Whatever I can do to pay back Google for the "respect" they show this country.... |

| #7 If you need Google Maps to find the Lincoln Memorial, the mapping conflict is the least of your worries! |

| #6 Do they really think that nobody will notice when they get there that it's not the Lincoln Memorial? Everyone has seen pictures of the Lincoln Memorial - with the statue of Lincoln sitting in a chair and all. Perhaps they are going to build a huge paper mache 'statue' of FDR and hope nobody will notice. |

| #5 They're trying to contaminate virtuous Republicans by having them visit FDR's memorial, I just know it! |

| #2 Still not fixed at 0945 CT. I can find the Lincoln Memorial on the map easily enough. Google Maps puts pins on the FDR Memorial and some other site to the east of both. I'd like to think it's just a glitch, but by now we all know Google well enough to know that it isn't. |
