Traveling


Before you go, you might want to take a sneak preview of the highlights.

"Arounder takes those virtual walkthroughs you see on real estate sites to another level, creating 360-degree, full screen panoramas of locations around the world. The current application is primarily travel- enticing you to picture yourself on the shores of Waikiki, or in Parma's Teatro Farnese. But the ability of Arounder to create an enveloping sense of place could serve many planning applications in the not too distant future."

Music for free, but for how long?


Enjoy while it lasts. It probably won't for very long. Just type the artist, click OK. Couldn't be easier. There is no need for registration.

SideLoad is another free Music Service. The site provides more features and the recordings are better.






Here you will be able to navigate through the world of musicians who got located. Bands searching for gigs, solo musicians wanting to play live, musicians searching for a band, bands searching for a concrete musician to complete the band.

Live GPS tracker - Where will this lead us?


There is an integrated GPS functionality for devices that run Windows Mobile 5. You can find a demonstration of the GPS by going to the Atlas homepage and selecting Services->GPS (Beta). It shows you how it can track multiple devices simultaneously so that you can easily track someone.

Will WikiMapia lead us down the same route?
