Google Base is Live!

The beta version of Google Base was launched earlier today. It allows people to post all kind of information such as vehicles, recipes, job listings, and real estate listings, and this information will be freely available to everyone coming to Google Base located at base.google.com. This service is viewed as a potential threat to traditional classified businesses like newspapers and online sites like Ebay and Craigslist.

From Google Base website:

Help the world find your content.
Google Base is a place where you can add all types of information that we'll host and make searchable online.

You can describe any item you post with attributes, which will help people find it when they search Google Base. In fact, based on the relevance of your items, they may also be included in the main Google search index and other Google products like Froogle and Google Local.
