Google Maps Reviews

It seems that the Google Maps team is asking some Google Local Guides to update older reviews they have left in the past. Tricia Clements posted a screenshot on Twitter of the Google Maps request.

The request said "Has it changed?" Meaning, has your review changed and you can "earn +5 bonus points" by updating your review. Tricia wrote "Google is asking me to update my review from 9 months ago, but my original review was filtered and not live on the map! What's the point of updating a filtered review? I'll try anyway."

Here is the screenshot:

I like that Google is asking Local Guides to update their reviews.
