Subject: including additional fields in local search results (business url, zip)

Searching Google Maps for "Cafe Shi Ames IA" returns a result that
places a marker on a map, has the phone, name, and also the
restaurant's website. Using the AJAX API's local search, there is no
url for that website.

http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/services/search/local?v=1.0&q=cafe%20...

Is there a way to enable certain fields in the results? Or another
query that would include the address, lat / lng, and website?

Thanks,
Dan

Unfortunately, no.  You can request additional features using the
issue tracker, though.

Thanks for the response. I may request the feature, though I would
assume the website was not included for a reason in the first place.

As I'm not a Google employee, I don't know the reasoning behind no
business URL.  I would guess, though, that it may have to do with
either (a) licensing (i.e., Google doesn't do their own local
directory; they get it from others), and/or (b) the fact that they
offer a separate web search which could be easily tied together with a
local search to find related web pages, etc.

I should point out that, if you really need the business url, the
latest version of the Yahoo! Local Search API does offer it.  Just be
prepared to build the entire UI from scratch.
