I'm meeting Google in California on Monday. I'll ask them if they need a hand in finishing the Mac OSX version of Google Earth. :-)
Not had any crash running it on my XP machine but then I've got a NVidia 6800GT. One of the coolest things is marking a start and end point for a route then have it animate traveling that route. Rather amazing!

get us a job whilst you're there , there don't seem to be any in this country :)
I spent some time playing with it last night, the world tour is quite good.
I particularly like the hidden city in Beijing and the Union building in Pretoria (nice gaff:)

Surely for "Maccies included" read "Maccies will be included at some point, if they're lucky". Google say they're working on it.
This is just an implementation of Keyhole though, isn't it?
I say "just", actually it's a damn impressive one. But then you'd expect that from google.

1. It could very easily be interpreted as many things other than "the preceding statement is untrue".
2. It's a pretty fucking major hair, in that as a statement it is absolutely, 100% wrong.
3. I was just trying to have an intelligent conversation.

Well, there is that outlook I suppose.
If you fancy a session tomorrow night maybe I can help cheer you up?

8:30 should do it. I'll be putting Asha to bed before then.
I'll knock up some food if you fancy? There'll be enough whatever so no need to decide now.
This is extended to anyone else interested, but it's not like a special occasion or nuffink so you won't be missing anything if you don't make it :)

Umm... Sounds rather rude.
What sort of session is this? Does it involve either of you getting naked?
