First they got thier own version of the Visual Earth (rival to Google Earth/Maps).
They they added tons of hi-res aerial views.
(in both cases it's our office building)
And now they add street level view - associated with map!!
Check it out at http://preview.local.live.com/
Thus far it's only SF and Seattle; it's slow, jerky and not very precise, but it's still pretty darn cool! You can drive/walk through the streets, see your location on the map and see the surroundings as if you were there...

    I just recently found out about MS Virtual Earth, and I must say, the "Bird's Eye" views are incredible! Talk about a time sink though...
