Hi! I'm Phil from OpenOakland.

Why?

Text is often easier to read than a map (map illiteracy is a thing)
Text is more accessible for the visually impaired.
Easier to deal with long lists (simple vertical scrolling).
Easy to enhance results (like loading supplemental data (store hours) or getting public transit directions).

Examples: Yelp! search results

@evanwolf Hi Phil! Great to hear from OpenOakland! Thanks for the idea, I'm actually working on something like this for another project, and it would be a great addition to WICit. I would definitely add this if it showed up in a pull request ;)
