GoogleMaps and Craigslist
Saturday, Apr. 9 2005 | Author: jeremySomeone has combined the For Sale/For Rent listings at Craigslist with GoogleMaps to show where available properities are located in different areas.
A pretty neat idea and great use of scraping. Also shows that some services that don’t offer APIs really should consider it.
