Emerald City points out an oh-so-close-but-not-quite-cool website that maps independent bookstores. Actually, the MapMuse website maps lots of things. For example, here's a look at Houston area used bookstores, a set of establishments with which I am...somewhat...familiar.

The thing that keeps MapMuse from being a truly cool website is that, for some reason, as Tobias S. Buckell points out in the Emerald City post, they are not using the awesome Google Map interface. Grrr! Google Maps are way more responsive and intuitive. People are using the Google Maps API for a reason. Page draws pages between clicks on apps like this is so 2002.
