MutliTouch Wall Demo - Hilarious

This is only vaguely related to Google Earth (they do show some satellite photos), but I just thought it was too funny. Saturday Night Live last night made fun of how some news stations have gone too far with their big multi-touch wall "tools". You can watch it here (move over to 5:30 to see the start of the wall skit):

It was funny but somebody has to fix that map behind the news desk. What an abomination.

Merci for the video link,
I really appreciate the chuckles this a.m. Considering I am stepping the mast and prepping for the winter ice here in Minnesota, It set a new perspective for my day.

If you watch CNN after the elections, you'll probably see Google Earth in our "Magic Wall" during our weather segments. Its really a blast to have the entire Earth at the tip of your fingers :)
