We already know that the Local Guides is a global community of explorers who write reviews, share photos, answer questions, add or edit places, and check facts on Google Maps. As it is a Google product, millions of people rely on contributions of Local Guides to decide where to go and what to do.
The key strength of the Local Guides is that, most of the users are the developers of it. That is why, people feel it and use it, which make the Google Maps and Local Guides unique. Especially, strangers who visit unknown places, get help from Google Maps. Actually, Google Maps helps people as local guide. When I visit any place even it is unknown to me, I fully depend on the Google Maps. I feel confident that I have Google Maps, since now a day’s internet is almost every where of the world.
So, the meaning of Local Guides to me is the confidence of finding places everywhere in the world.
