The team at “Via Windows Live” is sponsoring a contest asking you to submit articles or videos showcasing innovative Virtual Earth applications. Winners will get a Virtual Earth clock or glass globe (I have one of each – both nice); and, everyone who contributes gets a t-shirt. Hey, in this economy who couldn’t use a free shirt! The contest started February 16 and runs through April 16, reports Chris Pendleton.
