Ask.com Drops Maps Switches To Microsoft Earth

By Reshma Kumar at July 02, 2008 0 Comments

Ask.com has migrated off of their mapping platform and onto Microsoft’s Virtual Earth platform. Ask follows suit of many portal sites letting Microsoft make the heavy investments in infrastructure, imagery, photography acquisition, data updates, etc hence allowing them to focus on developing applications that benefit end users. Other portals incorporating Microsoft’s Virtual Earth include YellowPages.com, Superpages.com, and WhitePages.com among many.
