1. A computer-implemented method for generating geocoded user information, comprising:

  • searching across multiple different data corpuses, in data that corresponds to an account for a user and that was stored prior to the searching across multiple different data corpuses, for entries having location-related information, by distinguishing entries having location-related information that indicates a geographic location from other entries that correspond to the account;

    determining locations for the location-related information;

    determining a current location of a mobile device that is associated with the user;

    submitting a query associated with the user data to a remote local search engine; and

    generating on a computing device, based on one or more of the determined locations for the location-related information being within a proximity of the current location of the mobile device, a map showing;

         1) the current location of the mobile device,

         2) representations of the entries having determined locations within the proximity, the representations shown at the determined locations within the proximity, and

         3) one or more icons representative of data received in response to the query.
