How could I get the latitude & longitude? Is there a way to make the results look in a specific format? I'd like to look something like: Title url content email latitude longitude thanks in advance, Sebastian Hi, I’ve been looking for something like this for a very long time, and am glad I finally found it.

How could I get the latitude & longitude?

Do you know if/how many automated searches per day or so that Google allows? Since this is not via the API, I guess they could complain of someone run a lot of searches (not that I plan to, but it's good to know the limits). I may also be interested in the Yahoo API, so I will look out for that topic here. Thanks a lot, I will look into that. Do you know if/how many automated searches per day or so that Google allows?

It'd be very messy as the number of results doesn't have its own div or span. Michael recently did something similar, I'll see if he can shed some light on this. Christian Hi Anders,
