Does anyone know if there's an

http://www.google.com/mapmaker
Anyone able to figure it out?
This is a major flaw with mapping services like Google. I highly recommend looking at OpenCycleMap (from the OpenStreetMap). These open source maps are in many ways better than Google maps. They allow registered users to make changes to the map.
