More Google Earth Updates
Yesterday, at their Geo Developer Day, Google released Google Earth 4.0 (Beta) - a major update to the mapping application which features 3D textured models and a new interface, as well as Linux support and a universal mac binary!
To coincide with the release we’ve improved our Google Earth links on Google Sightseeing posts by adding an excerpt from the post in the balloons that pop up. We’ve also much improved our Network Link (which shows all Google Sightseeing posts across the globe) by grouping posts into folders and adding an automatic refresh. If you’ve previously loaded the network link into Google Earth then we’d suggest removing it and adding the new link instead.
Feedback is welcome, just add a comment below. We’ll have some new sights for you later today!
I feel terrible, I didnt understand any of that.
But I have downloaded the new google earth as well as sketchup for mac. I think there should be a thing where site visiters can show their new sketchup creations. I can show my house i’ve designed!
Finally I’ve been able to try Google Earth. It’s fantastic! Thanks for the notification. I’ll look forward to clicking the Google Earth links in future.
Dude…Google Earth has been out on Mac and Windows for ages…unless you mean Linux…

Still not available for Windows ME…:(
Damn my stubbornness to upgrade!
It is much awesome, but it has my county and a couple counties around me labled completely wrong. Otherwise, it is great.

Well, the old version of Google Earth said *minimum* configuration Windows 2000/XP. Yet I found that to be inaccurate as it wouldn’t run on Linux. Happily, the situation is now rectified.
