More patents on local seo and local advertising

[earlpearl]

Got a heads up from bragadocio; Bill Slawski.

He just reviewed a lot of new SE patents on Local. He published them here in SEW: http://blog.searchenginewatch.com/blog/060711-205551 and has blogged on them at SEO by the sea.

I only scanned his SEW article but it seems Google especially is setting up to capture lots more of the type of advertising that has historically gone to the Yellow Pages.

I'll be interested to read this in depth.
