Hi, I'm new to the Google Maps API, and I've been looking for awhile
for this - is it possible to specify a coordinate and have the API
return a list of businesses (coffee shops, perhaps?) within a certain
radius of the coordinate?

I've found this post:
http://groups.google.com/group/Google-Maps-API/browse_thread/thread/b738a197ed43bffb/911243c712d7616d?&lnk=sbp#911243c712d7616

but the link he mentions is just another reference site which I looked
through as well. I'm not quite sure what I'm looking for either
(points of interest?).

I'm looking to get the data that you might find while searching for,
say, "coffee in Seattle." In the google maps application, it even lets
you pick categories to narrow things down by. Is this functionality
available through the API?
