Google has created an interesting mashup using Google Books and Google Maps: Google searches through the text of books in the Google Books database and displays the locations mentioned on Google Maps. Take for instance the Google Books entry on Tolstoy’s War and Peace (scroll to the bottom of the page to see the map) or The Travels of Marco Polo.
Cool. Google has just released a new tool called Google Patent Search. It currently searches through over 7 million patents; so far, it seems much better than the US Patent and Trademark Office’s search feature.
