I don't like the idea of relying on one app (or a single non-app entity) for everything. Last night my girlfriend suggested we try a restaurant she had heard of. I looked it up on Google Maps and was informed that the restaurant was closed. A quick check to the restaurant's website showed that this was incorrect, and not by a small margin. Google listed the closing time as 4pm when in reality they served food until midnight!

This is far from the first time I've experienced this, and each time I have attempted to give feedback both to the restaurant and to Google. In every case, Google has ignored the feedback. In several instances the restaurant owners said they had attempted to correct the error as well but without success. What good is a single "all knowing" app if it isn't always right and difficult to change? It calls into question the accuracy of other information I rely on Google for, such as up-to-date suggested driving routes, weather forecasts, flight status, etc. Sure I know how to verify these things, but then what's the point of Google?
