London Aerial Virtual Tour by Tom Mills

October 22, 2009 by 3z

Panodigg is a cool place to find great new VR tours. I just found Tom Mills (vrwebdesign.co.uk) last creation, an extensive aerial panoramic coverage of London.

Tom says he was inspired by the fantastic photography of Oleg Gaponyuk and design by Pixelcase, from the New York virtual tour.

Fly Geyser Black Rock Desert Nevada by Howard Goldbaum

October 13, 2009 by 3z

Located on a gated parcel of private property within the million-acre Black Rock Desert, Fly Geyser is not a natural phenomenon. It was created accidentally in 1964 from a geothermal test well inadequately capped. The scalding water has erupted from the well since then, leaving calcium carbonate deposits growing at the rate of several inches per year. The brilliant red and green coloring on the mounds is from thermophilic algae thriving in the extreme micro-climate of the geysers.

PanoGoogle the VR Panorama Search engine

October 9, 2009 by 3z

Just a few lines to announce a new site: http://www.panogoogle.com

the first VR panorama search engine

the first VR panorama search engine

Far from being perfect, we believe it’s still a big step in the right
direction since the majority of results brings you to VR panorama
pages. PanoGoogle is based on Google’s CSE Custom search engine.
Using the standard Google search these results are also present
but diluted among thousands or more non VR panorama related results.
To make it simple you’ll find VR panoramas easier and faster,
therefore we believe the PanoGoogle Search Engine is a nice addition
to the VR panorama community and for the general public willing to find
vr panoramas on a specific subject or location.

If u have any questions, suggestions or critics, please check first
the Q&A, start a discussion on the PanoGoogle Facebook page
(http://www.facebook.com/pages/PanoGoogle/121722635515) or just drop us a mail.

Try to find your panoramas searching for specific keywords you have on
your pages, if u don’t find your pages it might be that we didn’t added yet your site to the searched sites index, in this case please drop us a mail to “contact at panogoogle.com” with your name and site URL and we will check it and if all is fine add it to the index.
