OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap is getting noticed by the big boys. More importantly, they are integrating OSM into their products. Both MapQuest and Microsoft have added OSM layers to their maps. I found that Microsoft would be interested in OSM quite surprising but I suppose they are reacting to the competition. Surprisingly, Google Maps isn't multilayer so it may be a while before Google can jump on the OSM bandwagon.

Long time OSM supporters must find this recognition very gratifying although I'm sure a donation would be appreciated as well. ^^
