    Google, Yahoo, MSN, NASA, etc. all mashed together.
  • diggypop, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2Can't hold a candle to flashearth? Did you notice FreeEarth is 3D Google Earth in a browser, not just 2D Google Maps? This friggin' rocks.

    Once they add in unlimited zoom, tilt, and rotate, this is going to rock hard. Kudos to Poly9... there are a bunch of developers out there trying to bring Google Earth to web browsers, and this is a big step forward.
  • code_of_life, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Freeearth does not load in my Firefox, maybe it needs a newer version of Flash.
