Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF)
The Microsoft Windows Presentation Foundation provides the foundation for building applications and high fidelity experiences in Windows Vista, blending together application UI, documents, and media content, while exploiting the full power of your computer. The functionality extends to the support for Tablet and other forms of input, a more modern imaging and printing pipeline, accessibility and UI automation infrastructure, data driven UI and visualization, as well as the integration points for weaving the application experience into the Windows shell.

Microsoft Virtual Earth
Virtual Earth provides the power behind Windows Live Local, an online mapping service that enables users to search, discover, explore, plan, and share information about specific locations.
