There is a popular saying that goes “There is love in sharing” but I believe that loving is sharing and vice versa. For me, Google maps is more than a map. It is an expression of love. For what is love but helping one another when the other is in need?
Google maps gives me the avenue to express this love because I get to help other people learn about places they would love to visit via my own experiences. I love to share reviews of the places I visit and share useful information that cuts across various topics from where to get great food, which places have free Wi-Fi, wheel chair accessible entrances, great service and more.
While I love to share reviews and images that can help users make informed decisions about places or businesses they are searching for or would love to visit, I believe my reviews also help businesses understand what they are doing great and where they need to improve.
More than anything else, I prefer to share helpful tips about places/businesses I visit on Google maps with the hope that innovative businesses will use the feedback to improve their businesses and serve their users better.
