Google engineers - shed some light please
OK. Less might be more, but what’s this?
Now select everything that is inside the balloon and copy it into a text file.
This was there even before the update, but what does it mean? I imagine most of it are attributes, to fill if there is data available.
However the ones that I find interesting are:
- unverified listing
- removal requested() (a function?)
- placement on map is approximate
- after the phone number, the ‘approximate times’ (what? timetable?)
I’m calling out to my humble readers, or Google Engineers to shed some light on this. Feel free to join the conversation!

the variables seem only to appear when they are set.
Martijn, I’m seeing a lot of things in Maps these days which could either be bugs or willful obfuscation of factors (as you know; you commented on my disappearing citations post). This seems to me to be the former but you never know.
Interestingly enough, when I was in Barcelona in 2004 I ate at this very restaurant three times in four days and it is FANTASTIC!!!
@David hehe, then I will have to check out that restaurant as well!
Google is treating Maps as if it was Beta. Strange things happen, and things break. Let’s wait and see what’s up next;)
