- Does nothing to change my opinion that Google has done nothing
noteworthy outside of search engines and maybe their ad service.
And their maps, of course. But then again, how google, of all companies,
can't manage to get the non-JS fallback to work cleanly and reliabily is
I don't think Google _wants_ it to work. Whenever I use something from
Google (other than the web search), I get the feeling they want to force
me to enable JS.
Maybe disabling JS gets into the way of their ad- and data mining
features, or they want to force Web 2.0 on everyone.
beyond me (or how they can't manage to *start* the map centered around the
search point instead of starting it elsewhere and slowing scrolling it to
the center as it does now, or can't figure out that not everybody needs that
damn pop-up bubble on the search point *every* single time they do a map
search). Even mapquest was able to pull that stuff off years ago.
