Use geolocation to narrow search results #1

It may be possible to use the browser-driven geolocation info to narrow down search results in such a way that we can present the target address with very little user interaction.

It's a possibility but I don't think we should do it. A few keystrokes of an address name or a number should already get you way closer to an address that is yours. We are dealing with a San Jose type dataset. If we were dealing with all possible addresses in the United States it would make a bigger difference.
