Really cool RealEstate Valuation Mapping technology at Zillow.com
Talk about Killer apps - this one is da bomb.
Zillow.com takes in your address and spits out the evaluations of the houses in and around your locale all this on a really cool Satellite/Hybrid Map.
Love it.
Thanks to Business2.0 to point me towards this!

And would that be your $900,000 house in the middle of the picture?

This thing was not even close to accurate. It showed a house that I know just sold for over 1 million for 150k. - Anonymous

Looks pretty, but I prefer to go to the source -- the county assessor's office. Most assessors provide an online parcel search and sometimes even a fancy mapping applet with sat image overlay. Examples: Snohomish and King counties in WA.
Snohomish: http://gis.co.snohomish.wa.us/maps/property/index.htm
King:

If you still prefer the indirect route, www.redfin.com is a decent site for King county.
These are great resources when you're home shopping.
