Google Earth: Impact Structures Continued
It has been over a month since I’ve released the first ‘impact structures’ network link for Google Earth, showing you the top 25 largest impact craters on earth. And it has been quite succesfull.

Google Earth for Mac, developers wanted…
Or so it seems. Google wants a Senior Macintosh Developer – Mountain View and/or a Macintosh Developer – Mountain View.

Google Earth for Mac, alternatives

Google Earth for Mac
What’s keeping you (Google) guys? I know, 5% of an audience isn’t much of an audience to reckon with. And I could just whip out my Dell to play with GE. But as mentioned at launch: Apple Macintosh computers are not supported at this time (but we are working on it). I know 1,5 months…

What struck me was that they are blatant commercial placemarks. Whether they were put together by GE enthousiasts or not.

Google Earth: Impact Structures Top 25 (was 10)
And here it is! My first public experiment with Google Earth. Some time ago I stumbled upon the Earth Impact Database. A table with all 172 confirmed impact structures on earth’s surface. Putting one and two together I figured it would be nice to see those impact structures visualised inside GE. I also figured it…

Katrina + CNN + Google Earth
Makes for some interesting first. I’ve been following the Katrina aftermath this week and today, watching CNN, I noticed something familiar. One reporter used Google Earth, live, in his report of what happened to downtown New Orleans. Highlighting, zooming in, several parts of the stricken city to discuss what has happened.

Google Earth: Impact Structures
I’ve spent the better part of my sunday examining the network link feature of Google Earth. For those who don’t know. You can share your placemarks. And you can do it in a way, in case of an update, that everyone ‘subscribed’ will be automatically updated. Network links give you the power to serve content…
