Caligari Joins Microsoft Virtual Earth Team

Have just learned of another acquisition made by Microsoft team to bolster its Virtual Earth and Live Search Maps offerings. California-based company, Caligari, is bringing its 22 years of experience in 3D collaborative authoring tools to the Microsoft Virtual Earth team.

Fellow Virtual Earth team member and blogger, Steve Lombardi, has some personal insight on this that he shares in his Virtual Earth/Live Maps blog today.

Caligari CEO, Roman Ormandy, shared his thoughts on his blog today. You can read those here but I want to call out this one quote:

"I talked to many people at Virtual Earth group and I am convinced that the technical team behind Virtual Earth has a significant, long-term commitment to the 3D Web."

I think all of us on the Virtual Earth team very excited by this acquisition and the impact it will have on the future of the Virtual Earth 3D environment. I know I am!
