What I love sharing on Google Maps, and why?

One of the many things I love about the Local Guides experience, is the way in which we’re creating a shared memory of experiences from every corner of the world. This interconnected meta-experience of the world is perhaps most vivid through the sharing of photos; I have seen many places which I’ve never been to thanks to other Local Guides.

For this reason, I really love sharing photos through Local Guides, of everywhere I go that strikes me as memorable. I guess I’m that guy walking around taking photos looking like a tourist on a tight schedule, so that I can add my lived experience of this beautiful world into our shared experience of it.

Because we are literally creating and embedding the visual memories of a shared meta-experience, not dissimilar to the concept of a shared consciousness. What an incredible project to participate in! What an empowering way to frame the majesty of one’s daily experiences; as important contributions to the collective creature global society is becoming.
