Imperfect Technology: Google Maps and Wikipedia (City Lights)

I must have missed the roll-out of this feature, so I may as well mention it here.

Google Maps has a new major mode: "More" (next to Street View and Traffic.)
Under "More" I now find "Photos" and "Wikipedia."

This shows that North Beach in San Francisco is perhaps overrepresented in photography, and underrepresented in Wikipedia.

The Google Maps plus Wikipedia feature may be defective or incomplete. For example, I find it very difficult to believe that Fog City Diner has a wikipedia entry while City Lights Bookstore does not. See for yourself, then weep for the forgotten poets.

City Lights Google Maps

Google Maps does show a Wikipedia article on "Jack Kerouac Alley" but that does not address my point about City Lights Bookstore. City Lights does have a Wikipedia entry of course, but Google Maps fails to make the connection.

Thanks to Merlin Mann on Mac Break Weekly for the tip.
