Google Earth
Google Earth combines satellite imagery, maps and the power of Google Search to put the world's geographic information at your fingertips.

Google Earth makes the traditional Keyhole experience less geeky, and accomplishes a nearly complete integration of Google Local and Google Maps. An important aspect of the changeover is the planet-wide graphics update which renders every inch of the globe in medium detail at least-populated areas get the high-resolution treatment in which cars, trees, and occasionally people are discernible. The combination of improved interface, better images, and tight integration makes Google Earth a blazing success.

On the other hand few problems are also associate with google earth like complains against google earth at government official level South Korea is to take the US to task over Google Earth images which expose its military installations to close Commie scrutiny has provoked a mini stampede of other peace-loving nations eager to protect their assets from prying eyes.

The flaws, whys and wherefores

Google Earth is a Beta programme which it means it is still under testing (Beta programmers use feedback from their users to tweak things). As such Google Earth is not quite a complete programme and although the USA and United Kingdom are given great coverage in terms of landscapes and landmarks (zoom in on Cape Canaveral) other less developed areas are not as extensively mapped and pictures can be blurry. Particularly, disappointing is the poor coverage of The Great Wall of China which after all is the largest existing man-made structure. If it had been in America it would have been in Technicolor. There can also be the odd dodgy satellite picture too were cloud coverage obscures some buildings. Neither are they complete in terms of place names as illustrated in our example when we found pictures of Japan are great but finding were our friends lived was an impossibility. However, this is a free programme. Though there is a further two subscription options for the casual user they seem to offer little benefit and Google promise the programme is being improved upon all the time. If your house is not listed you can sign up for the newsletter which informs of new additions or reviewed pictures and I can only see Google Earth getting better and better my only fear being that this cannot stay a free programme forever.

Advantages: Fascinating, largely accurate satellite display, 3D pictures of landmarks. Free!
Disadvantages: Still in Beta testing stage, less developed countries poorly presented. Some blurring in images is also found.

Google Finance
Google Finance, a search and info-portal for US stocks. You can search for both a company name (like "Google"), its stock market symbol (like "GOOG"), or a business (like "search"). Google Finance is now also linked to from the main Google web search when you search for stocks.
But Google finance not gained assumed popularity. Google's Google Finance has failed so far to break into the ranks of the ten most popular sites of this type, according to Hitwise.
All of the new/innovative/cool features in Google Finance are things we were aware about YEARS ago. Some were even prototyped. Such as:

• A ticker search that doesn't suck.
• Charts with overlays for news events.
• Blog integration.
• Featuring discussions more prominently.
• RSS support.
