We all know Microsoft are jealous of Google's search engine. Which brings in over 2 Million daily users and over $30,000,000. A couple of years ago Google released You must login or register to view this content. which has evolved into an amazing project which now allows you to view any road in Europe at street level.

Microsoft for some reason can't create there own ideas, they just steal them. So they've made StreetView, which claims to be much better quality than Google's standard definition camera shots.

They have claimed that it will not be a worldwide project when it starts off, unlike GoogleMaps. But it will only take high definition images of Main Cites and streets in England.

It was only a couple of Months ago Google got out of a court case due to breaking 'Privacy' laws. But now Microsoft have now decided to jump on the band-wagon.

What do you guys think of this?
Does this effect the way you look at cameras?
Do you feel vulnerable knowing your house is on the internet?
Or do you see it as a good cause, so we can look back on the images in the later future?

Microsoft need to stick to what there semi-good at and that’s operating systems and system hardware. The applications mostly fail, take the new version of Live Messenger it is a complete failure of an application that’s trying to become a social platform and not an instant messenger.

To be honest with you Google will wipe there ass with Microsoft if they continue their attempts at budging into the market.

Nobody uses bing, and I am not being an opinionated bastard it is a fact that the only people who use bing are old people who buy new computers with bing set as their homepage.

I forgot it even existed until I came across this thread -__-

Why does Microsoft care, they made the most sold software in the U.S. pretty much so far, and can't even write their own shit. Pathetic how they don't know their own operating system. But microsofts quality is hella good

The system itself fails anyway, you can only earn around 50-150 MSP per day :n:
