TerraServer fun
Microsoft (not my favorite company) made a big deal about their TerraServer project when they launched it in 1998 because of the size of the database of aerial photography. It’s still a cool concept: aerial photography of the US. Sunset Drive is the squiggly street and our house is on the bottom, pretty much in the middle (the fifth building from either top or bottom of the street).
Speaking of Microsoft, proof Windows is an operating system in it’s infancy: Just like Robert, when it gets overwhelmed it shuts down and reboots. :)
