Local Search - Next Contender: A9

Just like a reality show! Every entrant into local search has to come up with a special twist. A9's local search attempt is based on showing images of the storefront. They did a phenomenal job of automated video capture. According to their marketing blurb they now havemore than 14 million business listings and over 26 million pictures of storefronts and businesses.

Comments:
A9 did the filming in S/F and Oakland sometime late last yr. Seen the truck going throught parts of S/F and Oakland during the weekend.
