Hack Virtual Earth

Our friends over at www.ViaVirtualEarth.com are helping us run a contest for developers building Virtual Earth mashups.  If you have already written a cool Virtual Earth application or have a great idea for one, now is your chance to possibly turn that application into a prize of $1000.   It might be worth investigating the competition over in the VE Gallery like Poly9’s MSNBC news event map or Nikhil Kothari’s Photo Map. The contest ends October 14th, so check it out.

Viavirtualearth also has a bunch of interesting articles, tutorials, and examples to help you get started developing for Virtual Earth quickly.
