Bing Maps for Site Identification

After spending about 20 hours in the last week working with Bing Maps (i.e. their aerial/ satellite imagery) I can report that:
It is slow and difficult to work with compared to GE
It is mainly poor resolution of no value archaeologically
Where it is good it is often superb.
For parts of 'Arabia' where Bing is superor to GE I have identified over 100 new Kites (to take just the most obvious cateory)
