That's crazy, google is keeping up with all kinds of different services. I have used world wind(Nasa's version) and some other program that I can't remember. They all do basically the same thing though.

Thanks for posting this, I will have to try it out sometime.

I wonder what google will think of next :)

No Google earth wont cost you even a single penny if you download the free version but there is a charge for the pro version of google earth.

I think if you want to check how this program works then you can download the free version and if any money making idea clicks in your mind after having a look at it then go for the pro version. :)

I tried it a while ago. Trust me, it really does blow you away. Even some of the things the free version has was just mind-boggling. The only downside is that does require a lot of memory..so on a new computer it works just fine.

I used WorldWind only a month ago because it's far more better and advanced then GoogleEarth but sincethe arival of the third version of GoogleEarth I've changed my mind.With the last edition you get over a hundred new high-resolution locations which are not supported in WorldWind.

EDIT: Damn, why there isn't an EDIT button :/.I've just remembered something.Does anyone know why there aren't no people? I mean, if you search the Earth with GoogleEarth you can find veichles and even animals but there are no human beings.What's up with that? Did they remove people for some unknown reason or what? I mean, I've searched the whole Los Angeles (which has the higest resolution images) and I couldn't see a man in the city.

Notice from cmatcmextra:
Merged double posts. There is no edit button because people found a way to abuse the credits sytem w/ it, when they had the priviledge

And if you're interested...

You can zoom into the moon :)

Actually...A week or two ago I heard people talking on the news about google earth. The president (Prime minister?) of Russia was complaining saying that theives used google earth because it was really good. And if you do go to Moscow, which I think is a city taken the best pictures of...You can see that it's much better..Like Hi Def ;)

Anyway...The quality depends much on the area...And I think that if the area is taken in black and white then it has better quality, overall...?

hahah!
Whoa, that's crazy! Makes you think doesn't it. Like if you were looking at the Earth, your work/school/or yourself magnified (by a gazillion times), would be the size of this here dot . and you still couldn't see it clearly.

Makes me feel small. Amazing what technology can do, eh?
