My patented “flickr near sfo” style of querying maps.google.com is copyrighted. I invented it. You are basically stealing bread from inside of my mouth - the bread that I was going to feed my family with, and bread that I have already chewed — this bread you have taken from me with no compensation and no remorse.

Google Maps has a great interface. I was amused to see that a search for “communists in washington dc” returned the Trilateral Commission and Freedom House. I guess all those stories were true.
