    I found this new beta site by microsoft.


    http://preview.local.live.com/

    It's pretty cool. Not sure I'd actually use this (Even out of beta) but the novelty of it makes it fun.

    I recall amazon or someone (I forget) who was going to do all stores drive-by for a shopping vertical search site.

    So go give it a test drive and post what ya think.

    Well I just got back From Hawaii and thought it would be nice to have the islands mapped out (great job too if your doing it from msft). Other hot vacation spots are ideal for a visualized approach like this IMO. If I just need to find the nearest dairy queen its not needed. :p
