MS Virtual Earth Upgraded to Version 5

08th June 2007 | Category: Maps

We’ve upgraded MS VE to version 5. The most noticeable differences in this version are the support for Firefox, improved 3D imagery, optimized tile loading, and a more difficult to deal with API. Pushpins, Polyline, etc. seem to have been deprecated to make way for Shapes. Google really needs to get its act together when it comes to tilting (bird’s eye views). Also, they need to crack open their 3D warehouse for Maps (not Earth).
