Google Maps: Blue and Yellow Stars For (via: Kristian Köhntopp – Google+)

Posted by jpluimers on 2014/04/29

Kristian Köhntopp had a note post about Google Maps: Blue and Yellow Stars which he could not remove from within Google Maps.

In the end these appear to be bookmarks that you have to remove from Google Bookmarks.

He calls this a “complete UI disaster” to which I totally agree.

Thanks Kristian for sorting that out, as I did give up on that one.

After searching the web for a while, I found a lot of posts with wrong information, basically coming down to these 2:

At the bottom of the post, you will find a small shell script that I use to keep the hbedv.key up-to-date.

First some more about HBEDV, then how I found about the new download location, and a command to show you the current license information. Read the rest of this entry »
