It was bound to happen, we had a great run, but today, Google Maps has failed me.
I’m one of those users who (many years ago) used to turn to MapQuest (remember them?) for driving directions. Several years ago a search engine company developed online maps which were up to date, fast and reliable and as such quickly won me over. Since then, I have been using their service almost excusively and it always worked as advertised. Today, I tried to estimate the time needed to get to a Friday Night Fights NYC event, but couldn’t do so. Google Maps found both addresses easily, but couldn’t connect them for whatever reason. 🙁
In any event, I will be using my GPS, but it would have been nice to be able to estimate the trip length (not accounting for Lincoln Tunnel traffic obviously). Hopefully this glitch will be resolved soon.
