public api for nearby businesses

Question

I'm looking for an api to give me nearby businesses and venues based on a lat / long + radius.

I was looking at the foursquare api, which serves part of that: it gives venues based on a lat and long but not radius. Does anyone know of any alternatives? Does google have something that does this?

Thanks and any help is appreciated.

Answer 1

Yahoo has a local api that takes radius as an input
