The earth isn't flat. It is round

Lifehacker alerted me that Live can now do 3D maps!  Right now San Francisco, Atlanta, Boston, and Seattle are in 3D.

What is even cooler is you can use some javascript with the provided API to manipulate the earth. 

Here is the "hello world" program from the post.

<script type="text/javascript">
var map = null;
function OnPageLoad()
{ 
    map = new VEMap('map');
    map.LoadMap( new VELatLong(42.35822, -71.05309), 19, 'h', false,VEMapMode.Mode3D );
} 
</script>
