I sent these direct to Brady, but then thought it might be interesting for the wider list.
Questions for MapQuest Users: * Have you used G/Y/M/M24/et al and which do you prefer (or why do you prefer MQ) * Do you mostly use MapQuest within your local living area (directions from work/home location) or when traveling on vacation or business in a different city ( to/from hotels, airports, venues, etc) * Is it useful to view POI at your destination or along your route? * would it be helpful to search/filter those POI, or use 'preferred vendors' * would you be interested in providing your own sources of POI, or do they need to come from a 'trusted source' * How often do you print the direction results? (I'm guessing most always) * would you be interested in loading the direction results (and POI) into a navigation unit if you had one (in vehicle, dash, handheld, mobile device w/ gps) * do you ever use a GPS/Dashboard navigation unit? * would you use directions and POI finder from MQ if it was on your mobile device? * Do you have a "MapQuest Story" (got very lost based on a bad direction) and if so, why do you still trust MQ directions? * Did you let MQ know about the bad direction? * Is it fixed it yet? * Would integration of traffic data (current and/or predictive) be something you would find useful if you specified your expected travel date & time? Personal plug: * would you find useful (and how much would you pay for) a service that used your digital calendar & mapquest to let you know when you needed to leave for appointments and send the directions to your email (desktop/blackberry) or mobile phone via SMS -- Andrew Turner [EMAIL PROTECTED] 42.4266N x 83.4931W http://highearthorbit.com Northville, Michigan, USA -- Andrew Turner [EMAIL PROTECTED] 42.4266N x 83.4931W http://highearthorbit.com Northville, Michigan, USA _______________________________________________ Geowanking mailing list [email protected] http://lists.burri.to/mailman/listinfo/geowanking
