Just posted 3 articles about Google Maps last week. Now it’s their bitter rival, MSN Virtual Earth’s, turn. :)

This is rather not a good news, but a weird one, i guess. :D If you have time, take a look of the snapshot from MSN Virtual Earth at Apple’s Cupertino headquarters, then have a look of the snapshot from Google Maps.

What do you see? It’s like the Ad slogan of Danone’s ChipsMore, “Now you see it, now you don’t.“.

In Google Maps, you are able to see the Apple Cupertino HQ clearly, whereas in MSN Virtual Earth, it shows an apparently empty field. Questions raised such as, “This could be no more than an old picture taken before Cupertino was built or a glimpse of an imagined future”, etc.

Quoted:
Even more disturbing MSN’s Virtual Earth still shows the twin towers of the World Trade Center in all their pre-9/11 glory.

So, don’t be surprise if you don’t see your house or Linux HQ in MSN Virtual Earth. :D
