A virtual tour of Whistler

Dave Murray Downhill, the course that will be used in the 2010 Winter Games.I’ve uploaded and geotagged pictures from my ski trip to Whistler.

You can see a map with the satellite view. (Judging by the lack of snow, it must have been summer when the satellite image was taken.)

Geotagging will change the way we navigate the Web, especially for local- and travel-related queries.

Yahoo! Go, Yahoo’s new mobile offering, includes pictures from Flickr on local queries. More on that later.
