Zipdecode: Visualize Zip Code Location as You Type

Zip code location visualizer tool built by Ben Fry. Start typing in any US zip code, and as you type each digit of the code, it will simultaneously show you a coverage area on the map. And so on until it gives you the exact location. So if you want to find a location of some zip code and or simply want to see how US zip code system is laid out, go to Zipdecode.com

Features:

Quickly find zip code location.
Visualize US Zip Code coverage area on the map as you type.
Zoom in to see area details.
Note compatible with latest Firefox 3.o

See sample snapshot showing the location of zip code 383 52

To sum up, Zipdecode is a nice little app to get a visual overview on the desired zip area. On the other hand, if all you need is a dead-simple zip code finder you should go ahead and try ZipSkinny or ZCmap.
