My Google Earth Tour Video

Greetings earthlings, and welcome to another Saturday afternoon nap. On todays agenda is discussing Google Earth.

First of all, here is a link to the video.

Google Earth Tour

I tried Youtube, but they compressed it and totally screwed up the synchronization of audio and video.

I really like this tool, and wish I had more time to play with it. I think the self-directed nature of exploring and finding out what's where just using our curious nature makes this an amazing tool. I had to try about 10 times to make this video. First of all, I kept making 15 minute videos because I wantyed to show you guys everything. Finally, I got my spiel down to about 4:30 and my computer decided it was tired and wouldn't perfom so good.

My personal favorite aspect of google earth is the information links. I especially like the links directly to Wikipedia (one of my all-time favorite sites). The searching for anything anywhere and having it pop up little balloons and zooming you in so you can see them is just amazing.

Well, I need to go back and explore the surface of the moon some more (or maybe take another nap)

Wake me up when it's over

Spring 2010 - One semester left to graduation (assuming I pass the test).

Big brain burnout has left me in need of a regularly scheduled nap time. I'll come back and update you about how well I slept once I wake up.!!
