After Samsung, Motorola mocks Apple with #iLost

First it was Samsung, mocking Apple fans who were lining up outside stores for the iPhone 5 with the ad campaign that said that ’the next big thing’, aka the Samsung Galaxy S III, was already there. And now after Apple’s fiasco with its Maps applications, Motorola has joined in with the cruel #iLost tag. Apple’s Map application has become the butt of jokes and Motorola’s new ad campaign cashes in on that. Motorola’s campaign which is all over Facebook, Twitter and its Google Plus page, takes a direct potshot at Apple’s terrible Maps app. Check out the taglines and tweets used by Motorola in these Map app wars: Google Maps reports live traffic in green, yellow, and red to be as helpful as possible so you don’t feel #iLost planning your trip.  [caption id=“attachment_466271” align=“alignleft” width=“380”] Image from Motorola Twitter Feed.[/caption] Looking for 315 E 15th in Manhattan? Google Maps on DROID RAZR M will get you there & not #iLost in Brooklyn. https://twitter.com/Motorola/status/249661181772587009 With iOS 6, Apple’s half-baked maps application has earned the ire and mockery of users all across the world. For instance check out this Tumblr blog where users are posting the mistakes on Apple maps. As for Indian users of the new Maps app on iOS 6, be prepared for some very low-quality mapping.
