Virtual Earth (http://virtualearth.msn.com) is the latest web product from the Microsoft MapPoint team. Even though there are currently no official APIs available, the openness of Virtual Earth allows some friendly "hackability." Virtual Earth is implemented using a mix of both server-side and client-side technologies, including ASP.NET and AJAX (Asynchronous JavaScript and XML) .

In this section, I want to show you some of the interesting hacks that you can build around Virtual Earth.

This section is based on beta product and undocumented APIs; the APIs and the architecture may change significantly in future versions of Virtual Earth.
