More coolness from Google

Google Search by Location (beta)

Searching for things by location isn't that new (many "yellow pages" sites have it) but doing a full Internet search by location seems pretty useful.

I just ran into this issue yesterday. I locked myself out of my apartment and needed to get a hold of a locksmith. I called SprintPCS information and they found me all sorts of locksmiths. The only problem being, they were all on the other side of town. I asked the guy if he could narrow down the search by zip code - then he just connected me to some random locksmith who's number had actually been disconnected. I was pissed.
