As you may remember from my previous posts in the Amsterdam category, I have been using a combination of Google Earth, Microsoft’s Windows Live Local and other online mapping utilities to locate the best destinations for upcoming trip. Combined with some photos and reviews, I have been calculating the Latitude and Longitude for each, to add to my PDA’s GPS software.
Well, there is a forum for Microsoft’s Virtual Earth and Windows Live Local service users and programmers to come together and discuss a wide range of topics on this topic. User’s of the the MapPoint software are also welcome, and the forum looks like it will be a good place to discover all the facts about the soon to be released MapPoint 2008 app.

Thanks for the update, I am familiar with Windows Live Local of course since it uses the Virtual Earth platform which is high-end GIS and using Navteq data, but I was not aware of all the other services and sites. Thanks for your post and I wish you continued success in doing a good job.
