I dunno, if you look at my posts I use the location thingy on google maps on my entries with almost every single one. I move a LOT due to my husband's line of work, so I find the feature very very useful and important to how I use the site. I'm sure I can get along without it... but it sucks to have something I'm used to using and enjoy taken away.

I'd like to see maybe an option in the user settings to allow the location to display as a link or as plaintext like "mood" and "music" fields are displayed.
