in a sense it's ironic that VM got sued while they were busy
sueing others. poetic justice aside, it has served to encourage
people to come up with alternatives and for people to actually
consider using these other alternatives. personally, i don't think
people really fancy using online street directories that are
cluttered with irrelevant advertisements of florists. it was just
that there wasn't much choice for the consumer. now there's
choice.
personally, i like GoThere (http://gothere.sg) cos it fulfils my
basic needs like public transport info and driving directions while
offering many other frills such as searching for nearby food and
wifi but that's just my personal choice. at least there's more to
choose from at the moment i feel.
