New PokeStops?
I noticed this morning, that the number of PokeStops at my working place nearly doubled (was 4, now is 7). These aren't sponsored Stops, so it's the first time I noticed new Stops since the beginning of PoGo. As a rural player, this are great news. Anybody else experienced this?

Not a single one since launch, my town has around 12-15 total stops, I am "lucky" enough that my office is on the other side of home so I can spin some of them each day on my way to work and back home.
My home is on the "blank" area, the nearest stop is almost 1km away, and of course I keep seeing pidgey, rattata, sentret, spinarak etc at that stop on the tracker, when I have like 20 spawns just around my block, each day I hate more the current tracker...I have even find Dratini by pure gps drifting while at home, without a good tracker I wonder how many rare I have missed...
This also matters for me.
I have lot of pokemons around me, yet tracker shows pokemons all over city pokestops which are much further away, it just makes no sense.
Tho i still propably see same ammount of pokemons.
I have missed one lapras near me because of this problem.
But then again i have got Chansey from further pokestop also.
Tho i cant see water spawns near me cus it always shows pokestop pokemons, this also sucks badly.
We had a few more pop up in my local town yesterday, plus at least one new gym (converted from a pre-existing pokestop). Location accuracy for some of the new ones was a bit off, but having spoken to an Ingress player (who approved a few stops in the area), sometimes it's not always easy as they rely on things like Google Street view which doesn't always give them a good view of the area, e.g. if it's in the middle of a field or park. These can be adjusted, and one particular stop (which was way out) I'm going to revisit soon and relay the actual co-ordinates back to the Ingress player.
Overall, very happy with the new additions.
