One of the things that I like about Mashspots.com is its simplicity. Based in Portland Oregon, this company which launched in January of 2008 has made your local searching a bit easier.

MashSpots.com is a free service. Just click on any location on the their map to get the four closest places of interest. Mashspots makes it easy to find places around any location without having to know the address of the location you are searching around, just search for the city you want to search at and click on any location on the map to get the 4 closest search results.

For example, type “supermarket” is the “What” field of the website, then enter your location in the “Where?” field and instantly a ton of matches appear in your location area. It is a no brainer to use this site, yet is is an great tool to use.

In addition, they have created a great Mashspots.com application for the IPhone. Just as easy and accurate to use as if you were using your desktop. Mashspots also makes it easy if you want to intergrate their service into your website.

In closing, simple, cool, fun, accurate and useful is what describes Mashspots. After 5 minutes, you will surely find this free service useful on a daily basis.
