I’m not able to get this to workcompletely, and the connection is a little strange, but Google has apparently
begun tying together the loose strands of services it provides. In this case, imagine a combination of Maps and Base to
divine the housing market. Try typing in "homes for sale" as a search, and a new option appears atop the
search results: Search Housing. You can further refine the search by location and type (rent, sale, or
whatever). Once you’ve narrowed those items down, you get a list of housing results, but with another, more advanced
refine above the results. Above each listing is a link called Location, which will take you to a Google Map. If you
look at the URL you’ve landed on in this search, it’s google.com/base/etc… Pretty nifty, although who knows when
they’ll do more with this. Right now those search results do indeed take you to the listing, not some special Google
holding tank. Anyone else find any tricks to this?
