Ever been to Fargo?
Ever been to Fargo? Apparently Amazon.com has. How do I know this? Well I just found pictures of their grand road trip.
Tonight I was pondering about how a9.com has been a complete flop and the its attempt to enter the dominated web search market may have been naive.
But today when I visited it, I found some feature that I had never seen or heard about before. They now have maps. And as a part of maps the have something called BlockView.
So go ahead try punching in an address. If amazon has been there, you'll see what your destination will look like. It's pretty stinkin cool. So you can go ahead and see what your house looked like on a random day. Now if we could only figure out what time they'll be at what location, we could really have fun with this.
The cities listed right now are limited. Which again brings me back to my original question, Ever been to Fargo?
