The "new" Google Maps sucks major ass balls.

Google seems good at fixing/ruining things that aren't broken.
What are your complaints.


Slower.

Street View is far more annoying to access.

No more easy right-click access to run up quick directions and such. 

The overall process flow is more convoluted and stupid.

I haven't been interested in junior high boys since the 7th grade. Now, the University Swim Team.... :perv:

I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

That's what software companies do.  They try to fix things that aren't broken.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Agree, and their recent change to Gmail annoys the hell out of me also.

You'd think he'd have a larger bathroom.  And that's not even ceramic tile in the back, I don't think.  Looks like formica.

So, Tim, do Korean girls really pronounce Coke like this?

It's a typical mispronunciation.

You often see it spelled with out the e.

There was a great sign at the cafeteria in CostCo advertising Hot Dog & Cok!

Slower.
Maps loads significantly faster for me now.

Seems easy enough to me, but then I don't use it that often.

I can right click on a location and get directions to or from, but I usually use the left click over on the left.

The map is a lot clearer visually, and the process flow doesn't seem at all worse.

True Grit remake.  Well enough made movie, but not sure what the point was of redoing it.  It's not as if the characters were vividly reimagined.

I just spent $35 on a 16" floor fan. I couldn't stand the heat anymore.

It's delightful, but I will have to pick up all the papers that was blown off my table.
