Commentary on Neogeography:
Neogeography combines the cartography and GIS making them user friendly environment but it also has many pitfalls. Because geographical maps using Google tools are easy to create and they are acceptable for Internet public there is not warranty about reliable information which they offered. So all remain to the morality and ethics of the author.
There are also negative consequences because neo-maps exist some personal information whis is shown to the public. In this point of view it can lead to some troubles for the creators. Even above mentioned negative consequences, neogeography has much more potential nowadays. Using Google tools for example makes our life easier and more interesting.
