Improved City Search Offered by Ask.Com

Dec 4, 2006 by Tamar Weinberg | Ask.com, News

What do you get when you integrate Ask’s maps service with CitySearch, Ticketmaster, Reserve America, ServiceMagic, TicketWeb, and TripAdvisor? You get AskCity, which was launched today.

The easy-to-use interface is shown below: a search panel on the left, the results in the center, and a map view on the right.

For now, the company intends to enhance the user experience, so there are no ads on the site. According to an article at ClickZ, ads may be introduced later on.

This promising product is intended to “drive frequency and usage of Ask.com,” and it looks like they’re on the right track.
