inkdick: april 03 2009 google maps
So I’m off on my yearly adventure to Athens, GA to attend one of my favorite comic festivals FLUKE! Google Maps tried very hard to get us lost by telling us to go south when we needed to go north, but we showed them! Sure, we got in an hour later than we wanted, but we got there.

Google maps is the worst thing ever for directions..
Every time we use it, it takes us to the wrong place, or near the right place, but blocked by a big fence or the such-like.
I looked up my house on it once, and it comes up with the wrong one too.

I have a terrible sense of direction. One time I missed a turnoff, and only realized it almost two hours after the fact. >.>

Your 24 year old birthday gift will be a GPS. Google maps, politely stated, suck.

u don ‘t need a GPS,
unless u like to hear “Recalculating….. recalculating…. recalculating….”
every time u swerve off the “prescribed” route…
:P

I like the way your mom thinks! I asked my dad for a GPS for my birthday.. and he didn’t get me one, which was fine. But last week he bought a GPS from 1996 off of a crack head for ten bucks.. lol. Needless to say, it does me no good.. I can barely read it.. and it doesn’t talk to me.. so trying to squint at the tiny little dots while driving.. not really my favorite way of getting around.

It’s actually good to know google isn’t omnipotent.
Sometimes these tech companies start looking or sounding like a small machine can replace everything, including ourselves. We’d end up with a human-less world, with a civilization consisting just of a few small computers that keep making calculations to self maintain itself inside nature, perhaps solid enough to withstand planetary explosions, and transfer to other planets or float about the universe.
Now that I write this, the idea is quite appealing… if ever possible. Just as appealing as having smart, and maybe fun bunch of people living in peace and harmony, heh.

My dad bought a TomTom for over here in Poland and you can download different voices. He downloaded a redneck voice so you’ll hear things like “Bear left bear left…well thats a fuzzy one” or “stay to the left bobby” None of us are named Bobby either.
