Microsoft Slide! A new way of thinking for StreetView for maps

Originally seen on Engadget Be sure to check out the video!!!

This is an incredible innovation to the online mapping experience. I love what Microsoft has come up with here. I've tried to use the StreetView option a few times and liked it, but even I saw it as lacking to what would be REALLY useful. I think this takes the tech a LOT closer to what is actually usable and useful.

I'm sure it won't be long for Google to add a similar feature now! haha

HP & Palm...a force to soon be reckoned!

Since the first introduction of WebOS around 18 months ago, I have been a HUGE fan of Palm's new innovative OS and the first phone carrying it, the Pre! I even cancelled my Verizon account 2 months after the Pre's release.

Since then the platform has come a LONG way! Granted, it is still in its infancy, but it has an amazing community to back it up that has brought it to even greater heights!! If not for the Palm Homebrew community, and the insane fan base at PreCentral.net, not even I would be happy with my phone!

Now, with the acquisition by HP, I am eager to see MANY new additions brought to the WebOS platform as well as incredible new hardware to see it on! The announcement has already been made that WebOS 2.0 will be released later this year as well as future releases with the OS being featured on printers, netbooks, and slates!

The truly BEST mobile OS will soon be unstoppable!
Thank you Palm. Thank you HP. Thank you Homebrew community.
