Summary: Several important point of Interest categories are missing from possible suggestions offered in the iOS 6 Maps app.

Steps to Reproduce: 

- Open iOS 6 Maps
- Open Setting (page curl)
- Tap "Report a Problem"
- Choose Missing Location
- Add Pin anywhere
- Try to find the following categories: "Web Development, Web Consultancy, Technology, Internet Services"


Expected Results:

It should be possible to create missing locations for Internet and Web businesses. The only categories vaguely matching this are: "Professional Services, Internet Service Provider, Web Design".

Actual Results:

Nothing resembling the following businesses can be found: "Web Development, Web Consultancy, Technology, Internet Services"

Regression:

Notes: The categories offered are poorly organized and much proper submission would be received by Apple if they were at least broken into main parent categories. See Foursquare & the late Gowalla for inspiration.
