Mr. Jeeves has just introduced a couple of interface changes on his recently launched Local Search (beta) service.
What’s new?

+ Maps
+ Directions
+ Local News
Powered by Topix
+ Expect a tab/link for “people search” to be added to the local search interface.
+ Ask has also added a “local” tab/link located directly above the main search box on the Ask Jeeves home page.
