One thing I really miss about being in the States is those cutting-edge Google services.

Google Local Help says: "We plan on expanding this service to other parts of the world as soon as possible."

Anyone have any idea when? In the meantime, is there anything better in Germany than the Yellow Pages (gelbeseiten.de/)?

Apparently, Google Local will appear in other countries (the U.K. and then Germany), later in 2005 according to
kurier.at/multimedia/934758.ph ...
and other articles.
