Microsoft has released its newest service to compete directly with Google. MSN Virtual Earth is Microsoft’s poor attempt to take on Google Maps.

I’d have to say MS Virtual Earth ranks on the “brilliant product list” right up there with Windows ME. Sites like The Register have been eager to point out that MSVE has some rather dated satellite images. In the example used by The Reg, Apple Computers’ HQ isn’t shown on the MSVE maps, however comes in clear when using Google’s service.

d3bruts1d.com is my [d3bruts1d] collection of news, rants, and random thoughts relating to the subjects Technology, Gaming, Entertainment, and just about everything else. This place is in no way meant to be considered a serious or professional news blog, in fact anyone who attempts to take it as such should probably seek professional psychiatric help immediately. It's here so that I can share with other people the things that interest me. If you're here, then hopefully you share similar interest. If we have nothing in common, then I have but one question for you, "why on God's green Earth are you here?" If you happen to be as messed up as I am, feel follow me on Plurk, FriendFeed, or any of other of the many social networks and websites I'm on.
