Brownstoner Goin' Mobile
We were lucky enough (and believe us, it was luck, not some great foresight) to start tagging all property-related posts with google map data some three years ago. If you've checked out the neighborhood archives on Brownstoner in the last few months, you will have noticed that you can navigate them through a google map interface. This should be useful if, for example, you are thinking of buying a specific property and want to go back and read the archives about all the other properties in, say, a three-block radius of the one you're considering. If you've been paying extra close attention, you may have noticed a new widget pop up in the lower right-hand corner of the home page in the last couple of days prompting you to "Get Brownstoner on Your Mobile Phone." What's this about? Well, through a new service from the mobile services company Lightpole you can now be out looking at open houses and access the Brownstoner archives on the go through your phone. Additionally, as our list of restaurant reviews gains critical mass, you'll also be able to get that info on the go. Give it a try. We hope it'll be useful.

Wonderful! Now if only someone could make a widget that lowered mortgage interests rates...

I hate the term lightpole. It sounds so NYDN dumbass. What happened to lamppost?

To search the neighborhood archives, just go to the dropdown menu called "Neighborhoods" under the "About" button at the top of the page.

Isn't a lightpole an anorexic Eastern European?
