New Google Earth 4 beta released. Cleaner UI, 3D texture-mapped buildings, and faster rendering on flyovers. Universal Mac binary and PC version available.

Cool! The resolution kinda sucks, but its a big improvement! These new photos are quite new, probably within a year. Not too shabby!

Google Earth might be updated, but Google maps is not

maybe in a couple weeks or even days it might be.

What happens to my blog when Grand Rapids isn't blurry anymore... I'll be sooo behind the times

Echoing snoogit's sentiment... waiting for this to hit Google Maps.

The Google Maps and Earth aerials for Muskegon just were updated just in time for the unveiling of a new interactive map of downtonw Muskegon. Must have been taken in the last nine months or so.

I upgraded to the latest version of Google Earth last week. Anything south of Fountain St. is still a lovely shade of green. But atleast its better than when all of DT was blurred out.

I had to add this link to my post just for giggles.
