Ended up on Bing maps by accident today and ... wow is it full of errors. Old stuff, incorrect stuff, outright nonsense.
-
On top of their own errors (from whence they came, I cannot figure out) they've clearly just dumped the Foursquare DB right into their system complete w/joke locations, single bad checkins, etc...
-
People use Swarm/Foursquare in all sorts of weird ways and just dumping every single check-in into your mapping software is crazy. Obviously, there's going to be some stuff irrelevant to anyone but the five people who shared that joke location 2 years ago.
-
They also appear to have scraped Facebook pages' info and ended up with some rather weird interpretations of even how the pages describe themselves.
