What a difference a month makes

A crashed laptop, corrupt backup and huge workload have all contributed to a lack of postings recently. I now have Livewriter reinstalled and have a backlog to catch up with!

Looking at my last post - I am struck by how fast the whole geoWeb space is moving. The big annual geoWeb bash (Where2.0) of course - so it was a good time to release new products.

Since this relates to a project I'm working on I'll be posting quite a bit on this topic.

In the meantime two things:

1) If you add "view:map" after a search term in Google...it will map the results. Try "Fi view:map" for a map of where Formula One races are held.

2) A great description of why the geoWeb subject is important and Google's strategic commitment to it, by Google's MichaelJones:

You might find this is a better tracker of Formula 1 circuits actually :-) :

I have been doing stuff with Google MyMaps for work recently which is quite fun:
