Lab 3 - Google Maps

View Road Trip in a larger map
     I think one of the pitfalls of neogeography is that the information may not be accurate. Since anybody is allowed to create a map, the information that is provided may be wrong. The information may also be edited by anyone else, so it is hard to figure out how credible the information is going to get. Two people can make the same map, but have different information associated with their map. This way, it is going to be difficult to find the map that has the correct information versus the one that does not, or maybe even both maps may be incorrect too.
     On the other hand, I think neogeography also helps to promote new places. Some people like to try new things so they would go somewhere new and put it up on the internet that way other people can get an idea of what that place is like. When neogeography is used like this, a lot more information gets shared. But if the information is inaccurate then it will affect a lot of people, depending on how many people see the information. If people professionally went out and record new places then I think that neogeography is going to be really useful. If professionals or someone really interested in this particular topic created the information then there would be a smaller chance of providing the wrong information, so people can trust it more.
