VirtualEarth is live!

Finally the much anticipated competition to GoogleEarth is live in the form of VirtualEarth on MSN. There are some cool features which I like about VirtualEarth
  • Zooming is supported by scrollwheel
  • There is a location finder based on IP address. This tell you where you are located.
  • The interface looks sleek. That's the first thing I noticed. Cool transparency effects. I guess they are using the IE CSS filters.
