MapQuest Gets Into the Egg Hunting Business

MapQuest launched a feature that lets those celebrating Easter find the closest Easter egg hunts. These include formal hunts for the general public (search technology hasn’t reached the point of indexing private backyard events).

It’s an interesting integration of local event based data and online mapping. Lots of other possible holiday-based integrations come to mind. Check it out — especially if you’re looking for some good egg hunting on Sunday.
