Ask.com now uses Virtual Earth

Great to see that ask.com has done the right thing and adopted the best mapping solution available on the web. See http://maps.ask.com.

And of course multimap (www.multimap.com) now has VE's bird's eye view images - hardly surprising since we acquired them a while ago. However I have recently overheard a couple of people saying "have you seen the cool new bird's eye view" feature on Multimap?". Not realising of course that this is a feature of Virtual Earth that has been around for a while :-).

Actually I don't care whether they use the feature on http://maps.live.com, on http://maps.ask.com, or www.multimap.com - it's the same feature, as long as they're using it (and aware of it).
