Gazelles chasing each other … in Amsterdam
Snapped a bicycle gear with gazelles chasing each other around. Gazelle is a dutch bicycle factory.
Sharp dressed man
Snapped near Prins Hendrikkade, Amsterdam.
Horsechestnuts continued
Snapped some flower fall-out around the corner at Kastanjeplein, Amsterdam. Incidentally, Kastanjeplein means Horsechestnutsquare 
Rusty Amsterdam
Snapped near Sint Anthoniesbreestraat, Amsterdam.
Data?
Snapped data when walking past a physiotherapist in Zeeburg, Amsterdam
TomTom is pretty lo-tech!
Drove past, turned around and got out of the car. Snapped on Spaklerweg (Amsterdam).
TomTom is a navigation systems maker.
Mashup Google Maps less detailed?
I was happy to find out that Google Maps made Amsterdam available in hi-res satellite view, and with a street map:
The strange thing, is that when I checked the same location in a mash-up, using the Google Maps API, the resolution is still the old data, and without a street map:
Which sucks, because I use the mashup as a graphical geocoder in my geotag plugin for this weblog (Serendipity). Which results in less accurate geotagged postings 
Is this a prelude of a ‘pay and get more detail’ strategy for Google? Or does that not comply with their don’t be evil conduct and am I just being paranoid? 
Cleaning up Amsterdam after Queensday
Snapped in the Haarlemmerstraat (Amsterdam), at the end of Queensday.
Amsterdam finally Google-mapped!
It has taken some time. In the beginning, just one hi-res block. Now all of Amsterdam! And what’s also nice, is that map data has been added. Now if only the search would include Dutch street names … but hey, it’s a start.
