Longitude Latitude Database

A few years ago I had bookmarked a website that had a very plain search feature that allowed you to search names of all sorts of geographical whathaveyou and gave a table complete with longitude and latitude coordinates. I believe this site was US-centric (might have been USGS but I looked and failed) although it was possible to search for anything, world-wide. Ring any bells?
Google Squared lets you get results back in row and column format, and then add more columns to the result set.

For just places there's the US Census Gazetteer, which just happened to be open in a tab in my browser as I saw this:
