Google Earth now on Apple iPhone

October 27, 2008

The powers of the tech world have in synergy come up with Google Earth for the iPhone- and why not capitalise on this new broadband-enabled phone market. I’m personally not quite sure how useful the application will be; unless of course it’s beefed up to be real-time enhanced satelite images for our everyday spying needs :) I’m sure we’ll all have fun with the “My Location” feature that is included in the software.

According to ZDNet: Announced on Sunday, the application allows users of Apple’s handset — as well as those of the iPod Touch — to zoom in and out of a virtual globe. Google Earth has been available on the desktop for three years, and has been downloaded more than 400 million times, but the iPhone deployment marks its first mobile version.
