New Beta Version of Google Earth Out .0616

Google released a new version of Google Earth Beta last night. You can get it here. This new version has several new features according to this post:

  • You can now search your Places list
  • The web window can be split vertically now, or you can pop the window out
  • The Google Toolbar (after installation and restarting your browser) now has a "Search in Google Earth "

I had just thought of the need for the search in Places the other day and now my wish is granted. It's nice to see Google continuing to integrate GE with other applications. I'm going to check out the new web window features, but I suspect I will continue to use my favorite browser (Firefox).

I'm hoping they fixed the bug I had found earlier which forced the use of IE when you select the "Share with GE Community" menu option...yes, it's fixed!

I have a subscription copy of GE+. Will the beta version compromise this or make it better?

Thanks

The new beta version will update GE Plus as well.
