3D Driving Directions and Driving Simulator
One of the Google Geo API team developers, named Roman Nurik, took one of the really cool Google Earth plugin demo applications (the Milktruck game) and created a really useful application. He combined Google's map driving directions with the Earth API plugin to create a 3D driving directions tool which also lets you simulate driving along the roads with a 3D car. If you have Windows (not yet running on Mac OS X, or Linux - but, Google promises they are working on that), then you should check out his 3D Driving Directions here (requires the GE plugin for your browser - IE, Firefox, or other Mozilla browsers supported). You can also read his post at the Google Geo Developer Blog where he explains how he developed the application. Well worth a read if you're an aspiring Geo developer. Amazing!
