Layering Commentary Onto Google Earth

Eiffel+Tower
Google announced today the integration of YouTube videos into Google Earth. From the release:

The integration of YouTube functionality into Google Earth offers a
new way to experience destinations as seen through the eyes of YouTube
users who have visited them, enabling people to watch, hear and feel
what's happening in locations they may never have otherwise visited.

Recall my riff on how I think Google will dominate in the world of Second Life, version 2.0:

Second Life is all about play, and fantasy, and alternative realities. I'm going to guess that Google's version is going to be all about reality, and mashing up AdWords, Google Earth, Sketchup, and the Yellow Pages/Google Local. The two will live quite nicely one next to the other, and most folks who use one will probably not see using the other as even vaguely competitive.

Google Earth combined with YouTube... this is certainly a unique combination of two quite different concepts. Yet, when you think about it, it may become increasingly popular as people begin to catch on to the concept since at the moment it seems a little far-fetched.

Check-out my post on:

if you're interested in Google's strategy...enjoy.

Would I be too demanding in asking for something that looks more like PhotoSynth by Microsoft?

unfortunatly, such videos are not always relevant !
for better quality, you may prefer to use www.turnhere.com or www.VeniVidiWiki.eu , where videos are selected regarding quality and pertinence criteria ?
Points of interest are classified in 50 categories (capitals, events, natural/cultural places, outdoors activities ...)
it can show videos from youtube, dailymotion, google video, turnhere ...

arkadaslar dont write bad letter here

it just nice

thanks in advance
