Amazing Places in Google Earth - Roundup
Google Earth has lots of amazing sights captured in its millions of images of the Earth. GEB is constantly writing about both places to see, and add-ons to make Google Earth do things you never imagined. Here are a few amazing collections of places or add-ons recently in the net news:
-
PC World Top 10 Amazing Add-ons - this collection was put together by the guys at GoogleSightseeing.com (I was busy when PC World asked me to compile this list, but James and Alex did a great job).
-
51 Places You Can't See in Google Maps - This collection shows 51 notable locations which were censored by the folks who sent the imagery in to Google. The links in this article all go to Google Maps. But, Google didn't do the censoring themselves. Read more about Google's imagery.
-
Lenin 100 Years - Someone marked this message with trees as a giant tribute to Lenin. You can see it in Google Earth
. See story in the Telegraph. There have been other messages done with trees - see the largest one here.
