[|Historypin] is a new service developed by We Are What We Do in partnership with Google. Historypin allows anyone with a Google account to place images within the setting of current Google Maps Streetview imagery. If you don't have images to add, you can simply explore the imagery added by others. To explore the imagery on Historypin, zoom in on a location then select a range of dates on the Historypin timeline. [|NZ On Screen] Discover the best of New Zealand screen content. In 2007 NZ On Air initiated the NZ On Screen project as an integral part of its digital strategy. Much of this content, as well as thousands more hours supported by broadcasters, film investors and other funding sources, is not easily accessible to the public. NZ On Screen is unlocking the treasure chest, providing access to the wealth of television, film, music video and new media produced in NZ, along with knowledgeable background information. NZ On Screen is fully funded; there is no commercial aspect. Links are provided to other sites or businesses where titles can be purchased or downloaded. NZ On Screen does not handle any transactions or carry advertising. [|STOP DISASTERS!] A disaster simulation game from the UN/ISDR. Looks really useful! [|QuikMaps] Doodle on Google Maps!
