Google Earth Community at Keyhole forums is another good place.

Live Maps from Microsoft needs to be addressed too.

I have Garmin & Megellan, sharing the data. Lost in the universe :) 2002 - 2007 have explored the deserts of UAE from border of Saudi Arabia to Oman border in a Land Rover Discovery and virtually visited areas where mEn never reached before. Salah Abdal Malik was all way along during the exploration to learn the mapping and 4x4 cross country from Al-Ain to Abu Dhabi in his Nissan Pathfinder back to back. It is fun exploring our own Heaven from deserts to valleys of Shogran, admiring the nature. Now running on CNG :) Great … :) Teetho send me email, i have mapped out routes off & on road from Gawader to Abbotabad, Hawaliian, & Khunjarab pass, via NH, Motorway and GT Road, have 17000 mapped way point markers in Grid coordinates, for fuel stations, food joints, locations of Nature, locations of workshops, etc etc I don have time to place on Google map, if you are interested I can share the data. starting from 2002 till 2006 April.

All the modifications you add will be property of Google and will not be exportable to other devices. With OSM, you can export that data to your cellphone or GPS.
