Tokyo Panoramas
February 15, 2008
The Washington Post today has a multi-media presentation on Tokyo. In addition to some video explorations of the city (which seems like standard journalistic stuff) there is a series of panoramic photos of places in Tokyo. These photos have a clarity and crispness that I find beguiling.. and they are eminently browsable. These panoramic photos would be much more effective if presented with links to a map. Suddenly the city itself could be explored. To me that is the goal of all these efforts: to create an Internet experience that allows for a city to be experienced on multiple levels.
