The power the OSM tagging system.is capable of astounds me over and over. Looking for benches with backrests in your area? There's a way to encode the locations of those in OSM!

Are you allowed to bring your bike onboard this ferry? Does it have a toilet? All answerable with OSM!

Of course, the downside is a diverse set of opinions on how to tag stuff, but I get the impression OSM editors are aware of the vast public benefits of having an agreed-upon way to tag things.
