The problem with Google Now’s predictions though is that sometimes they can be inaccurate from the start or take a little longer to adapt to change. Moved your home? Switched jobs? Went for a month or two to a vacation house? Google Now might stubbornly want to keep your old addresses.

I’ve read reports that it seems to take 2 or + weeks for the 1TB promotion to take effect.

In practice it’s usually not that bad as most of the times it’s a matter of days not weeks though it can take up to 5 weeks.
It’s nice to be a Google Local Guide as you learn a lot of new things and people that way for instance through the Local Guide events.
If you’re interested, read Level 0-4 in 40 days, what I’ve learned from Google Local Guides – Pocketables
I only discovered about this a while ago as it was early last year for Google Replacing City Experts with Local Guides Program | Understanding Google My Business & Local Search
What really helps contributing is to view your Google Maps Timeline

I checked our home using the recently improved Google satellite imagery: from Google Earth you can get better detail than from Google Maps.
You can even count our solar panels and see one is misaligned after a storm (a few days after this image was taken I managed to re-align that panel).
13 PV panels and one hot water panel lowered our energy bills for more than EUR 1000/year.

It is always cool to see some mashups: apart from great examples, they also make for some good research material.

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.

Thanks for StackOverflow user xordon for this answer:
This is current accepted way to link to a specific lat lon (rather than search for the nearest object).
http://maps.google.com/maps?z=12&t=m&q=loc:38.9419+-78.3020
- z is the zoom level (1-20)
- t is the map type (“m” map, “k” satellite, “h” hybrid, “p” terrain, “e” GoogleEarth)
- q is the search query, if it is prefixed by loc: then google assumes it is a lat lon separated by a +
