What ever happened to layers? I can't seem to find a way to show bike routes + terrain or bike routes + traffic or any other combination.
Re:How Instacart (YC S12) Hacked YC on Saturday August 18, 2012 @07:37PM (#4402678)
The title of the story - specifically the liberal use of "hack" - irritated me greatly, because it made the story sound bigger than what it is. Whoever wrote the story please reserve the word "hack" for true breakthroughs in future.
I live in SF, and it's great to see the schedules on google maps, but the estimated time for arrival is off as of now.

PadMapper is like the super helpful feature that craigslist did not figure out how to build correctly, or never bothered to build. I'm disappointed that Craigslist chose to respond by making a great social utility disappear from the market and anger the users. What about charging a license fee? What about acquiring PadMapper? What exactly does Craigslist gain by pulling its index off from PadMapper other than damaging its own public image?
