Reactions to story from Understanding Google Maps & Yahoo Local Search | Developing Knowledge about Local Search
Google Maps: Earthlink Listings now gone
http://blumenthals.com/ blog/ 2008/ 05/ 08/ google-maps-earthlink-listings-now-gone/
On May 6th Imnotadoctor.com noted that Earthlink had made quite a mapspam splash. In Google Maps: More Bulk Upload Mapspam or bad data from a Trusted Source. I questioned the source of the many listings, theorizing that it came not from a bulk upload but from a data feed. It now appears to be completely gone.
