I think they did a great job on that API, the interface looks so good and easy to use and Atlas will give you practically every things that other mapping services will give you plus some features that worth waiting for.

is satview only for Registered users ?? I cant get a sat view of a specific zone
No, you don't have to be a registered user to get a specific zone.
Go to Search, write the address you want and get the map.
wow, thats a really nice app!
the interface is quite innovative. will see that now more ofteni guess. the zoom level is a bit weak over here, though
The post above says that there are "features to come" including searching for blogs, events, gas prices, movies, traffic, WiFi...
These features are actually already in the product and are available for free to registered members (they are disabled for anonymous users).
Sign up for a free account and you'll have access to these features and others as we add them. We'll periodically send you updates when we release new features.
Taiwan is not a part of china.
you've got a big mistake.
Funny. It's broken.
You should try the service later, I'm sure it's not down for good.
