May 11 Virtual Earth Loyalist: Aerial ViewThis aerial view in the Boulder, CO area was brought to my attention. Clearly this property is owned by an extremely intelligent person who recognizes advanced technology when they see it. I would be even more impressed if it were the Virtual Earth logo! Virtual Earth Webcast: Adding Mapping Capabilities to your Applications with Virtual EarthFrequently we get requests from customers interested in learning more about how to actually code with our Virtual Earth application program interface (API). As simple as we try to make developing solutions with Microsoft Virtual Earth, having someone show you how to do it always makes good sense. One of our peers on the DPE team in Microsoft Public Sector, Marc Schweigert, hosted a webcast a while back during which he walked the audience through developing applications using the Virtual Earth API. Here is the session description and you can also watch the webcast that has been recorded in Microsoft Events: The Virtual Earth Platform is an integrated set of services that combines unique imagery with best-of-breed mapping, location and search functionality. It enables governments to deliver innovative solutions and breakthrough customer experiences. With the Virtual Earth platform, organizations can create an immersive experience that enables consumers to easily discover, search, and visualize business location data and locally relevant information. Take your websites and applications to the next level by integrating the Virtual Earth Platform to deliver the highly visual and locally relevant information consumers care about most. Leaving messages on the Virtual Earth for Government blog siteI am occasionally receiving messages from readers whose communications preferences are not set to allow me to reply. I receive the following error: If you have left a message and have not heard back, please check your settings to ensure that you are allowing receipt of messages or post your question as a comment here on the blog and I will reply.
