So I have a preview login and have been playing around. It's quite  
fun. The limitations on geo queries are of course primarily driven by  
the lack of map data so you guys aren't going to be jumping for joy  
yet, but there is a lot more there besides maps.

The thing I wanted to raise though that I haven't seen brought up  
anywhere is that it has an API that will be launched along with it and  
you can play with XML representations of the answers, get programatic  
access to the images and stuff. It being launched on May 18th makes me  
wonder what people might build at WhereCamp, a mere four days later :-)

Best

Steve
