Yahoo! Gets updated map tiles ... Hello London.
I haven’t really checked the rest of the world yet, just my house and London :) I’ll check elsewhere shortly.

Das Update ist übrigens auch in den Flickr-Karten schon sichtbar, so dass man Bilder endlich etwas genauer lokalisieren kann. [...]

    Preety cool. I wish they had some deomographic heat data like those GeoIQ US maps, but still pretty cool.
