Apartments on Y! Map

Apartments on Y! Map

I put together this hack I using Y! Maps, Y! Pipes, Y! Answers and craigslist apartment listings. The way it works is — after user selects a city; script pulls apartment listings RSS feed from craigslist. This RSS feed is ran through Y! Pipes to extract the location information. Once I have the location information, I am plotting every apartment location on Y! Map using Maps API. This hack also uses answers API to query real-estate and apartments related questions asked by Yahoo users.
