@MNateShyamalan In between regular maps and smartphones, I scribbled down Mapquest directions because I didn’t have a printer.

@colorfulygo @LouisatheLast most people don't read a map, the map tells them where to go all on its own. (I grew my brain in the age of writing down mapquest directions so that's still how I handle navigation)

This is how people got directions in 2004 from Map Quest. Before that they either used maps with a comp***, or wrote down landmarks (e.g. "Drive down Avery Lane, turn right at the Texaco gas station", etc). #MapQuest #maps #directions https://t.co/6fjGgZikPz

First thing I thought of with this Verizon outage is travel season. Imagine me trying to get to my high school visits with a paper map? I’d never make it. Mapquest? Never. https://t.co/4cBJHllS7n

Did anyone else’s parents used to write down MapQuest directions because they wanted to save ink only to get lost because they wrote the directions down wrong?

@mattmcgee It was a short-lived competitor to MapQuest, I used it often until Microsoft bought them out in 2002 and shut them down.

@TG22110 One night I was getting gas and saw a guy looking confused with directions he printed and put in a binder. He had been traveling eastbound and Mapquest told him to get off at an exit that was only on the west bound side. I explained the issue and got him on his way.

@ErrolWebber Some of us actually are old enough to remember BUYING maps before Mapquest came along. Or better, following directions like, "go 8/10 mile down this road then turn left at the white horse trailer". 😉

How the **** did we get anywhere before GPS and MapQuest? Like, I know how to use a nap and all but, like...what about when you miss your exit, what about when the place is down off some obscure side street. Do you pull out your map to find the nearest BK?

MapQuest directions literally used to tell you how to get out of your driveway, go down your street, and leave the neighborhood. I always felt that, if you couldn't do without directions 1-4, you had no business on the highway with other drivers. Period. 🤚🏽

@_TallieRose okay but one time Mapquest took me on a long circuitous route and then back to the road i'd been on a few blocks further down - it had been closed for construction at one point but wasn't anymore and i drove like 20 minutes out of the way for no reason
