Been on it myself and it's good! :-)
A very simple post here, amazing work from the Microsoft Live Labs team - simple and really cool graphics using Silverlight. I love the following:
Try it out for yourself, I suspect this is all powered from the same www.live.com search that is hugely revamped over the last few days - check out the mapping functionality which is such a huge step change on where we and the market have been, below a sample query:
Nice work :-)

Click on the picture above for more information - loved the following quotes:
"The biggest advantage is the time savings that people are getting. They are able to do things a lot more effectively and time is not wasted. Things are also not getting lost anymore" Chris Fenley, senior consultant at Waterson's and Durham Business School's IT manager.
"Faculty staff can also spend more time on students and research now that administrative procedures are simpler, and less paper is being used as processes go online" Fenley said.
Or as I often say - more time on the things that matter and less time faffing about with admin stuff! - Great news :-)
Enjoy!
Nice slide here - very enlightening for those who want more information on what WSS is versus Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 - nice views on capabilities etc
