Another great story from IA

One rural IA librarian just shared the story of a patron who was looking to buy a used car. The patron found the listing, took the seller's phone number, Googled it, found the seller's address, and then, using Google Maps, pulled up a satellite image of the house attempting to see if he could see the car parked in the seller's driveway. The patron was ultimately unsuccessful, but it's a very creative use of the avilable resources.
