Do you know the 8-bits Quest on Google Maps?

| #google #maps #OSM |

I was looking for something on Google Maps, and I discover this Quest.
It’s funny to be in Zelda world!
But OpenStreetMap will rule!

Address Is Approximate

Google Street View stop motion animation short made as a personal project by director Tom Jenkins.
Story: A lonely desk toy longs for escape from the dark confines of the office, so he takes a cross country road trip to the Pacific Coast in the only way he can – using a toy car and Google Maps Street View.
Music by the wonderfull Cinematic Orchestra (cinematicorchestra.com) and the track is Arrival of the Birds - please buy the fantastic album: itunes.apple.com/gb/album/the-crimson-wing-mystery-flamingos/id297787201
All screen imagery was animated - there are no screen replacements.

A really good movie! Bravo

The Doors - The End by Wemix

Google wave : This is the end

Ça y est, Google Wave tire sa révérence!
Dommage, je trouvai le service plutôt prometteur!
En tout cas, bien plus que Google Plus ;-)
Dear Wavers, More than a year ago, we announced that Google Wave would no longer be developed as a separate product.
At the time, we committed to maintaining the site at least through to the end of 2010.
Today, we are sharing the specific dates for ending this maintenance period and shutting down Wave.
As of January 31, 2012, all waves will be read-only, and the Wave service will be turned off on April 30, 2012.
You will be able to continue exporting individual waves using the existing PDF export feature until the Google Wave service is turned off. We encourage you to export any important data before April 30, 2012.
If you would like to continue using Wave, there are a number of open source projects, including Apache Wave.
There is also an open source project called Walkaround that includes an experimental feature that lets you import all your Waves from Google.
This feature will also work until the Wave service is turned off on April 30, 2012.
For more details, please see our help center.
Yours sincerely,
The Wave Team
