Mapquest still refers to the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of Mexico (hexbear.net)

Should I start using Mapquest because of this? I'm sure they'd sell out my geolocation data just as fast as Google. But at least I don't have to see the Gulf of not Mexico.

Seconding the Organic Maps recommendation. They added address lookup earlier this year (or late last year?) and it does everything I need now.

Still room for improvement on search, looking up restuarants by a general type, like BBQ doesn't turn up BBQ places that don't have BBQ in the name for example. The only other feature I think people will miss is reviews, but you can at least search that online without using another map.
