Craigslist housing + Google Maps = brilliant

Wow, this is cool. You can choose any city that Craigslist covers, sort by price range and see all of the places for rent in the city. If you click on a bubble, you can see the details including pictures. Sooo soo cool. I wish i would've had this when i was surfing for housing. *This* is how visualization becomes excessively useful.
