This morning (PST time), Satya Nadella and team announced a whole load of new Bing maps capability. I’ve been fortunate enough to have played with some of this for a while and the integration of Photosynth is very nice – Streetside will get a lot of attention I’m sure and Silverlight brings amazing performance to the experience. It really is very impressive. Check it out at http://www.bing.com/maps/explore/ or the video from Laura and Chris below for a walk thru of the features.
Does it not frustrate you Steve that back in the UK the Bing service is so poor in comparison- even for things that may as well be universal (e.g. Visual search, the "Enhanced View" link for Wikipedia articles etc) and are left out?
yep, definitely frustrates me but i'm confident things will change
