Whereas Google Earth continues to grow rich by new contents, Microsoft recently opened its service Virtual Earth with the 3D. Nevertheless, the selected form is different from that of the couple Google Maps/Google Earth since Microsoft directly integrates visualization 3D into the service Web, rather than to propose an independent application to download.

The plugin Virtual Earth 3D, currently in version beta, requires the use of Internet Explorer 6 or 7. Tested under Firefox, the site invites the user to download a recent version of the navigator of Microsoft to profit from the new functionality. Once installed, it launches Live Search in Internet Explorer and makes it possible to rock between the traditional sight 2D and a new sight 3D proposing an ergonomics close to Google Earth: zoom, rotation and slope are carried out naturally with the mouse and a bar of tool gives access to various angles of vision or the adjustment of the zoom. If the charts are not always as precise as those proposed by Google Earth, in particular with regard to Europe, Virtual Earth 3D manages the buildings in a way more realistic than the software of Google since it integrates already textures of the buildings. Those Ci are optional if your configuration does not allow it to you.


The effect is less impressive on Paris but some monuments like Crowned the Heart or the Triumphal arch are present. Version 4 of Google Earth deals with the posting of textures but the buildings integrated into the application do not profit from it yet and no European city is decorated buildings or monuments.
One will note in the passing that the American cities whose Microsoft proposes the visit are also strewn with billboards. A new vector for the advertisers? Google Earth remains as for him available here for Windows and Linux and by there for Mac OS X. You can also consult our Google Earth - Guide of the Traveller.

A few weeks ago, Google announced the final 1.0 version of its Google Chrome browser and its intention to sign several contracts for OEM distribution. Today, the Mountain View giant unveiled the alpha version 2.0 of Chrome reserved for developers.

Chrome 2.0 builds a new version of Webkit, the open source engine originally developed by Apple. The version used, 528.8, is now in Safari 3.1. In addition to correcting some bugs, the engine supports new CSS Properties as the gradient or canvas.

This new opus introduced several features to catch up on browsers as long as Mozilla Firefox or Internet Explorer. For example, technology is just autocompletion couple of forms on the Internet. While it was only possible to enlarge or reduce the text of a page, zoom now applies to all elements of the page. The spell checker has received several improvements with the option to disable it by right-clicking on the field of writing. Also, the user can choose the language of the correction through the browser options.

Among other functions that are missing the call in version 1.0 of Chrome and are introduced in this version include the automatic, usually operated by clicking the middle button of the mouse. Chrome 2.0 can also create multiple profiles for use with other favorites or choose different options for managing cookies and browser history.

However, the feature most requested concerns truly support extensions to Firefox. In this respect Google introduced support GreaseMonkey script. This option is experimental.

Note that it is possible to import their favorite Google Bookmarks, that the private browsing mode has been improved or that the V8 JavaScript engine also received an update.

However, no information has been revealed about the Mac and Linux versions of the browser.
