Bing Launches (Beta) StreetViews, etc.
I actually heard about this "big launch" last night at Ignite Spatial Boston. Microsoft hosted it at the New England Research and Development Center (NERD). Among the snazzy apps (click arrow icon for "more apps" to find them): ways to track Tweets and other datasets. Also launched: the Microsoft answer to StreetView. Oh, and the new stuff is Silverlight only.
