This is just nothing short of exciting fun for me: Virtual Earth / Live Maps: Live Search Maps v2 is out! Gemini Launches.

I immediately launched my FolderShare at work to grab some GPX files off of my home computer and load them into some new collections off of maps.live.com - nice! I don't have to write JavaScript to turn GPX into polylines now! Happy days, happy days.

And the other features are great. I can now use Birds Eye view to took at my neighborhood from four different angles. If I want, I can go to our King County web site and load up their parcel viewer to create my own GPX description of my neighboring parcels and see how things look from above from all sorts of angles.

Funtastic!

Ooo, ooo, there goes a bunch of hours now.

And there's a 3D modeler in there, too? Ooo!
