Will Google Ocean Be Added To Google Earth?

GoogleEarth_Image(2) Today I had fun playing with Google Earth, a free application that has beautiful 3D images of the world. To use Google Earth, just download the application from the main page - then type in a location and your off. You can see clear images of locations around the world and even email the map (which I did to create this .jpg). Google Earth is a great tool to get kids excited about geography, and also for some web humor. I should have used it to map out my trip to Disneyland before I left...

I just read in CNET that Al Gore is speaking at a Google Event with Google Execs and a special speaker: Sylvia Earle, explorer-in-residence at the National Geographic Society and the founder of the Deep Search Foundation.  CNET also posted about Google diving into 3D mapping of Oceans, something which I can't wait to see.


For now, I can just peek at one of my favorite California beaches using Google Earth: La Jolla.
