MyCal – improved location detection

Tweaking around with the location detection mechanism of MyCal (combining Yahoo’s Local search results with that of Yelp’s), I was able to improve its ability to locate the correct store/restaurant/bar you type in.

Now you should see for areas that have multiple locations (such as starbucks, petland discounts, etc) MyCal will automatically select the location closest to your zipcode. Go ahead, give it a whirl.
