Licensing points of interest database vs. creating your own when creating a mobile app MVP?

Using Google Places API and storing the results in your own database likely violates the terms of service. Likewise, you are limited to the number of calls per day to the API. If you expect users to appreciate (and pay for) the software you are generating, you should do likewise. Go with the licenced database.

Bill provided awesome SQL DB support to me as a developer. His queries were leaner and meaner than mine and he added an extra dose of efficiency for good measure. He was a delight to work with and finally, I could hand over my precious T-SQL to someone who I could depend on to do a great job!

As Director of the Developer and Platform Group at Microsoft Canada and executive sponsor for TechDays 2008, I am writing this to thank Bill for his support and participation with the TechDays 2008 Canadian conference series. Bill’s role as an industry leader and speaking in the Data and BI track was paramount in helping support technical professionals across Canada grow their ICT skills and connect with each other. Bill was an influential leader and in fact, we couldn't have succeeded without his generous support.

From making the sessions come to life with his real world experience, depth of technical knowledge and through his ability to share that knowledge, he brings a wealth of experience and passion to what he does. I really appreciate his all his efforts, commitment and passion to share his experiences. Bill was part of a select group of technical experts that contributed in this Canadian effort, and has set a new standard for social responsibility in this community, and a powerful example that will inspire others to do the same.

Thanks so much for all your support!
