My apologies to National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. Looks like I did not read there “Terms and Conditions”. If I had read that, I would not have used there logo. I got a call from them asking me to remove the logo which I will remove from http://www.mibazaar.com/missingkids.html before the end of the day.

I was just trying to help out here….

May 25th is the National Missing Children’s day, proclaimed by Ronald Reagan in 1983. Take a look at the map I have put together of the latest missing children alerts and missing children from all the states in US at http://www.mibazaar.com/missingkids.html. Please take some time to browse through this map, and also send it around to others you know so that it can perhaps make a difference in helping to find some of the children that are included on it.

I was trying to find out geocoding info for California. So I typed the following URL
http://api.local.yahoo.com/MapsService/V1/geocode?appid=YahooDemo&state=CA

Yahoo sends back Geocoding info for CAnada
(BTW, I should have typed in http://api.local.yahoo.com/MapsService/V1/geocode?appid=YahooDemo&state=California)

so I started probing further and typed the following in:
http://api.local.yahoo.com/MapsService/V1/geocode?appid=YahooDemo&city=ottawa&state=CA
What do you see? Geocoding for Ottawa, Canada

I tried this for Mumbai,India
http://api.local.yahoo.com/MapsService/V1/geocode?appid=YahooDemo&city=mumbai&state=india

Manchester,United+Kingdom.
http://api.local.yahoo.com/MapsService/V1/geocode?appid=YahooDemo&city=manchester&state=united+kingdom

It really works. I don’t see any documentation on this. So this must be a undocumented feature.

Great News for us Mapster’s
