title: Dynamically increase Google Map v3 search area when no results returned to include at least 1?
body: <p>I followed this example and successfully built a store locator:
  <a href="http://gmaps-samples-v3.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/localsearch/places.html" rel="nofollow">http://gmaps-samples-v3.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/localsearch/places.html</a></p>
  
  <p>My problem is that some searches do not return any results when the search location is not near a well populated area.  To see what I mean you can load the example URL above and try either search below which combines the "T-Mobile" Keyword with the zip for either Death Valley, CA or Yosemite Valley, CA:</p>
  
  <p>T-Mobile 92328
  T-Mobile 95389</p>
  
  <p>The Google API is not sending any results for either of these ZIP codes. (Makes sense since there are probably no T-Mobile stores within a great distance)</p>
  
  <p>I need to find a way to handle this and did extensive research but found nothing.  Is there a way to either:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Widen the search area if the Google API does not return a result to include at least 1 result.</li>
  <li>Start with a wider search area to minimize the occurrences of no T-Mobile stores being found within a given area?</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Thanks for your time!</p>
