I forgot to mention .. the other day I fixed CD-Swap and its search page. You can now search for items within X miles of the location you have set in your profile. The CD-Swap item detail will also give you an approximate distance, so you know if you can meet up to trade parts, etc. The distance will show up as 'unknown' if the item has no zip code set, has an unknown/invalid zip code, or is outside of the USA [for now].

Pretty cool :)
I tested it out for the first one (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/parts.php?action=itemdetail&itemid=10538) with the zip code (21541) and it says 196 miles away. That's not quite right... Here (http://maps.google.com/maps?daddr=Maryland+21541&geocode=&dirflg=&saddr=34759&f=d&sll=39.570764,-79.373474&sspn=0.131794,0.30899&ie=UTF8&z=5) is the google map from my location (34759) to (21541)...or maybe I'm not doing something right...

Nah, there must be a problem. I'll have to check it out later tonight.
