“Fly” Around the World on Air Google…give Google Earth a Spin:
If you haven’t already discovered Google Earth, take a moment and download this new beta service from Google. This new service from Google may end up scaring some people about how visible we have all become from space, and may help open the minds of others, with regard to new applications for such technology. I was taken back by the clarity of this service and the fact that I was able to notice my car in the office parking lot when I entered the street address of my office on Long Island.
As I experimented with Google Earth, I couldn’t help but start thinking about the next-generation location based services which could evolve by connecting real-time GPS devices to this service and then I learned that Google already anticipated this with their subscription “Google Earth Plus” and “Google Earth Pro” services.
Google Earth has my vote as one of the more innovative free services launched in the Summer of 2005.
