Want to see something cool?Scoble has linked to a very neat prototype site that Microsoft Live.com is working on. An actual street-level view of San Francisco and Seattle (more cities to come), where you can move down most any street and see not only “storefronts” but the actual street-level-views as if you were walking or driving the street. Very cool.
This is the kind of stuff that Microsoft is good at and should leverage more often. My hat is off to MS on this one – very nicely done & performance was quite good as well.
Come visit me at my new permanent Blog on the net at RickMahn.com. I’ll problably not be updating this space regularly as I’ve consolidated all my blogging efforts into one site. You can see some of the latest post headlines below.
Welcome to the culmination of my blogging efforts for the past year. RickMahn.com is the place where I will talk about daily events in the technology space and blogosphere. About work, a little about life, and sprinkled with a few rants on occasion.
The reason for starting a new blog is both simple and complex. I’ve been using a number of blogging tools (Blogger, WordPress.com, MSN Spaces) with differing results. I’ve come to the conclusion that Blogger.com currently was the most flexible, WordPress.com the most powerful, and MSN Spaces – well… oh my, look at the time.
So after a lot of research, learning new technologies, blogging, thinking, and figuring costs and such, I’ve set up shop here at www.rickmahn.com. I’ll be here mostly every day posting on things that I find interesting, interacting in the blogosphere, commenting on others’ posts and so on.
So, come on back from time to time and check out what I’m doing – drop a line and let me know what’s good and what’s bad. See ya round the ‘net!
