I came across this a while back and I thought I'd share. Crown Castle International is a major player in the US, UK, and Australian cell phone industry. They basically put up towers and rent space on them to cell phone companies (as far as I can tell).

Wanna know where all of them are? Well they've provided a searchable database of all of their sites. Oh, and you can download the entire thing in CSV format if you like to keep that kind of data on hand at the top of the site locator page.

Why they provide this information I have no idea but it's damned cool IMHO. Now I can find all of the sites "off the beaten path" and poke around.
