       | Cynical me assumes most "business oriented" apple features today
       | are in prep for their ramp-up of ads across the OS. You couldn't
       | sell a Maps ad that pointed to (1)only a website and took you out
       | of maps or (2) the default auto-generated page from yelp.

         | Right now Apple Maps pulls from Yelp which makes it almost a
         | non starter for me. I hate Yelp as the data is inaccurate and
         | hostile towards businesses.
