New overlays in Google Earth


Just discovered that 3 new very cool overlays has appeared in Google Earth by default. The feature is names “Geographic Web”. I love this new way of browsing the web on a map. This is also the idea behing MyWorld here on HappyGoLucky :)

1. Wikipedia

Information about places, buildings and areas from Wikipedia.org.

2. Panoramio

User contributed pictures that are placed anywhere in Google Earth.

3. Best of Google Earth community

Information about places, buildings and areas from Google Earth Community.

Tested a little bit on the Panoramio service. Free to register, Free to upload picture. You will find the picture I uploaded a little north of Krøderen…
