At the rate developers are coming up with new uses for Google Maps, we may just have to make this a daily feature. Here's the latest, courtesy of our peeps at Hackaday:  It's the cell phone tower search from Mobiledia. They've taken the FCC's public data on cellphone tower locations, put it into a database and created a front-end to let you search the database and display your town's towers via Google Maps; now you know where to go to avoid dead spots! Ain't open APIs grand?

Go there.
