Microsoft unveils a version of its local mapping service which plots where celebrities spend time in their home towns.
In a somewhat surprising move to promote its Windows Live Local mapping service, software giant Microsoft has unveiled CelebFavorites, a new Web site based on Microsoft’s Windows Live Local mapping service which pinpoints the favorite spots and hangouts of eight celebrities and entertainers. Unlike other celeb-spotting sites (like the controversial Gawker Stalker Map), celebrities are willingly participating in CelebFavorites: instead of ordinary people submitting their celebrity sightings, the stars are highlighting spots and points of interest they love about their home towns.
CelebFavorites’ lineup currently includes:
- Jeff Bridges
