Now, if you want to map your favorite place to get a burger, you switch to the "Business Name" tab and enter the name. Atlas will restrict its search to the area visible on the map, so if you're zoomed out, you may have to enter the city and state. If you're already zoomed in on a specific area, just the business name should be fine.
Here's what it looked like when I searched for "Cambridge Common, Cambridge, MA":
Here's a map of burger joints in Cambridge. Feel free to add your favorites.
Update: In the comments, David Silver asked whether we were going incorporate civic institutions as well as just businesses. The answer is that the "business" search returns quite a few civic institutions. I added the main Cambridge Public Library and the Mayor's Office to this map.

nice work rick!
continuing the tradition of burgers, i plotted burgermeisters. easy and straight forward.
in addition to business name, what about allowing users to plot by civic institutions? or schools? or libraries? is that in the works?
keep up the great work!
