So Google Earth And Flickr Walk Into a bar...

Google Earth 4.0 is out and with it comes with a new Layer option entitled "Geographic Web" which scatters GeoTagged Wikipedia Entries and user photos (through a very Flickr like service called Panoramio. The service is free and allows you to upload 2GB of photos and then tag their locations via a google maps/earth interface. I spent 3 hours last night just cruising from city center to city center browsing people's photos of the city's landmarks & buildings. Highly recommended for those that have decent 3D cards to run it.
