Local Guides needed for Google Maps - great opportunity for Realtors
Google is known for creating paradigm shifts and they are shifting again!
Remember when Google Maps changed how we used maps?  Then, they improved it adding Google Earth.  Then they added Street Views after sending camera crews down most major public streets.
What they are adding now is interior photos and more localized data.  To do that, they need people to take the time to take and upload photos, and help provide data for them to populate on their Google Maps.  They call these volunteers that upload and update data Google Local Guides.
You earn points for updating and sharing data.  As you earn points, you gain levels and benefits.  The points are obtained by:  writing reviews; uploading photos to Google Maps; answering questions about places on Google Maps; adding new places; and editing existing places.
