Reflections on life at “De Witte Wand”…

The Courtyard of the British Museum

Here’s a Photosynth of the courtyard in the British Museum that I did last year.

On this blog, hosted on WordPress.com, I can at least embed a link to the Photosynth, even if I don’t get a thumbnail (as I can on the same entry in my blog on Blogger). On my old blog on Microsoft’s Windows Live Spaces, I was unable to embed Photosynth pictures or links, because Spaces strips out the embed code. This while Photosynth is yet another Microsoft product.

Yet another case of Microsoft’s left hand not knowing (or caring) what the right hand is doing…

(tip: when viewing the Photosynth, switch to Grid View to select another set of photos shot from a different point in the Courtyard)

Addendum: And of course Microsoft has now scrapped the Photosynth product and technology, so none of these links work anymore. It’s dead, Jim.
