Flash earth is the "evolution" of google earth, if you dont want to download the Authoring tool of google earth you can visit http://www.neave.com/lab/flash_earth/ where you can find a version of google earth in flash. It is the same map system used in google so you can have it without having to download the program, it has also a nice skin and a draggable map, it also includes a zoom in and out and a compass also (if you find yourself lost lol), google earth can also be contacted or viewed by its page from google but it is in html so it is an amazing job what this person has done in order to brings us another point of view of the same google earth...btw you can also download the source files if you are interesting in developing it
cheers! |

So basically it's Google Earth just you don't have to download it. It takes longer to load though. Plus I like the intro to Google Earth as it zooms in on the Earth. Flash Earth has just a flat map. I do like how it has a target pointing to where you are zooming to though. It wouldn't be bad if you didn't have the space on your computer but I think Google Earth is better.

I tried to access it, but I kept getting a prompt window for username and password to get into the site...so I still haven't seen it yet.

i just tried to get there, but it said the browser can't connect to www.neave.com
maybe it's not offline, or something |
