I don't know when it happened, but sometime in the past few weeks Google Maps has suddenly decided that it doesn't know how to find my house.
This is definitely new--I've used it for mapping and directions since its release. But now, no matter what form of my address I enter, it claims it can't find the address.
Which makes me wonder--how often does this happen? And what recourse do any of us have if Google suddenly makes us invisible, whether it's from missing map data or messed-up page rank? There's nowhere on the Google Maps site to report something like this, so I suppose I just have to hope that at some point the missing data reappears. And, in the meantime, switch to Yahoo Maps (which has updated its interface and is much more enjoyable to use).
