I don’t use Google anymore except for Google maps in my car. :) I guess they can spy on where I’m driving. But no search history, bitches.

I’m not sure if it would work with how they do user updates, but I’m waiting for someone to make a version of Waze that runs on openstreetmaps. I.E. temporary updates like ‘car stopped here’ ‘cop parked there’ ‘lane closed ahead’
It seems like the functionality is already there for it, but they’d have to distinguish them from the long term updates like ’ this is a business at this address with these hours’ that presumably won’t change by the next day.

I came across “Organic Maps” and it’s really impressive. I now use them 50/50. The only real difference for me is that Google maps shows the traffic jams. So if it’s a long journey I use Google, but if I’m not in a rush and just need directions I use Organic.
