Rent by Map

October 26, 2008

Today we learned about a new website, MapsKrieg, that attempts to map out homes for sale, apartments for rent, roomshares, temporary housing, and sublets on a map.  Apparently the data is pulled from CraigsList ads and then populated into Google maps.

We found it to work quite well for rentals.  Homes for sale… mmm, not so much, but remember that these are populating CraigsList ads only.  The overall concept is good, the user-interface is idiot-proof, and usefulness is excellent if you’re currently looking for apartments by location.  Check it out at http://www.mapskrieg.com/view/sfbay.
