MSN Virtual Earth

Postby Ben_M_K » Fri Sep 16, 2005 2:09 pm

Hey there...just found a new thing on the web, MSN Virtual Earth. Very similar to Google Earth/Maps...but perhaps a bit more high resolution.

Give it a try and tell me what you think! 8)

I wasn't really impressed to tell you the truth. You can't zoom in very far, the pictures are at least 6 years old, and black & white is a turn-off.

Both blows. Germany is not high-res enough and the map data is way too old.
