  • Bing Maps: New Spatial Streetside Photos w/ Flickr

    Posted by admin on March 2nd, 2010 and filed under photos | 25 Comments »

    This new Bing maps feature takes tagged photos from Flickr, and relates them to our Streetside imagery to show images matched to their original context. See if you’re really going to get a good sunset at that B&B youre looking to book, or check out the crowds on a Saturday morning at Pike Place Market in Seattle.

      They’re not big because of their ideas, They’re big because of their market strategies since they were the first ones to sell Software separated from hardwares so people are able to build their own computers, its very cheap that way and MS Dos/Windows became famous. Now about Linux its something like: If people are able to build their own PCs why not a Software Open Source that anyone can modify and transform etc. In other words: Linux is perfect for developpers.

      Amazing work on the augmented reality and merging the geotagged photos. Would love to see how this works outside of cities, where the spatial information may not be as acurate.

      Brilliant. Have been looking forward to this since the first previews of Photosynth.

      Agree with everyone else about the naming and branding though. Bing’s just so nasty. ;-)

      Wow, What an amazing idea. No wonder Microsoft is so big! All this time I was thinking that I had a less mal-ware ridden and more stable OS by using Linux.

      You are using the Classic Bing Maps and not the silverlight powered version… Works great for me in FF3.6 and Chrome.

      Safari isn’t supported in Augmented reality–ie. 3D either?

      Question? What is the difference between this and Google maps? Why isn’t Firefox or Chrome supported for the 3D option? Why do I care about the stars in the sky in a map?
