Bing Map App: My FriendsThe newest My Friends map app (if you have not heard about Bing Map Apps, read HERE!)  just made to the Bing Map App Gallery. The app uses Facebook APIs to pull in your friends from Facebook. now you can viewed them on the Bing Maps site (Silverlight 4 required).

Fire up the new application, log in via Facebook Connect, select “Allow” to allow Bing Maps to connect to your profile (to get your friend list) and any of your friends who have listed a “Current City” in their profile will have their profile picture pinned to the map. (click on the top left corner to enlarge the scope).

On the map, clicking their picture will show you their picture and status. We also have the de-clustering algorithm in place so if you have a number of friends in one place it will spin their photos into a circle and tether them back to the location with a line.
