Keep in mind that OpenStreetMap is a data project, not a maps.google.com replacement project. There are plenty of other ways to look at OSM data. https://tiles.mapbox.com/newmap https://tiles.mapbox.com/newmap and http://maps.cloudmade.com/editor http://maps.cloudmade.com/editor let you style the data yourself, http://open.mapquest.com/ http://open.mapquest.com/ lets you route and search across it. https://github.com/mapbox/osm-bright https://github.com/mapbox/osm-bright is a good start at building your own style. http://osmbuildings.com/ http://osmbuildings.com/ uses CSS to draw 3D buildings based on OSM data. http://bl.ocks.org/migurski/5130639 http://bl.ocks.org/migurski/5130639 renders it in your browser with WebGL. The tiles shown at openstreetmap.org are meant as a tool for mappers to help with mapping and are not our product.
