Nicolas Boonaert’s book on Bing Maps has been released and it looks awesome! Nicolas lives in France and is an active developer in the Bing Maps community.
The book is in French, but amazingly I can still understand much of it :) It covers quite a bit in 450 pages:
- History, including TerraServer, MapPoint Web Service and Virtual Earth
- Architecture of the platform
- AJAX control
- Silverlight
- Bing Maps Web Service
- Building Mobile applications
- 3rd Party Projects, including DeepEarth
- Comparison with Google Maps, Yahoo Maps and OSM.
If your interested in Bing Maps or web mapping in general and can read French this is a must. If you don’t speak French but this sort of title interests you, then ping Nicolas and encourage him to do an English translation, he is on twitter here. Great work Nicolas!

Re: Guide complet de la cartographie interactive
Fashion and women: these two words compliment each other. Ask today\’s fashion lovers which shoes they look for and you will get the unanimous answer \”Christian Louboutin\”. Today\’s girls just crave for these shoes. Yes, it is reasonably a costly caprice to amuse but not an impossible one. If you\’re one who is saving money up to the last penny so that one day you might buy these great shoes, then you\’ll be thrilled to know that industrial alternatives do exist. Yes, today\’s options such as Christian Louboutin replicas are generally available that help you save some tons of money.

Re: Guide complet de la cartographie interactive
Hello there,
I own this book since two weeks and it is worth its prize, being full of coding examples and practical informations. I definitively recommend it !
My purchase was dictated by the fact that I'm using since several years the Multimap API on my web site www.vehicall) and since the purchase of this company by Microsoft, the support and development of that API is declining very fast :-( So I will be obliged to switch for Bing Maps in the near future...
Many thanks for your interesting blog and all the best,
Germain from Geneva

Re: Guide complet de la cartographie interactive
Thank you John, for your nice review! I really appreciate it!
I'm working with my publisher to see how I can translate it in English (copyrights and those things..).
