Alas, Google Maps!
A 'Walk of Shame' option will be made available to Manayunk residents just next to the Bus tab on the app, released first to iOS.
Google Founder Sergie Brin:
"We have a lot of free cash on the books. We wanted to do something for the community. The data is clear, requests for walking directions between 6 and 10 am are higher in Manayunk, PA than any other town, city, state, nation or region of the earth. Research shows it's a legitimate issue for any age, walking home, being seen. 67% of respondents said they feel "ashamed" and "thirsty" the morning after. So, in conjunction with our Small Business initiative, we've developed an algorithm to keep you off of steep, popular streets and near popular restaurants on your way home."
