    Yup, but Google Earth is different from Google Maps.
    PS
    Macupdate just posted a direct link to the unofficial beta:
    Google Earth 3.1.0371
    Enjoy. :)

    Google Earth for Mac finally available

    Finally, the very cool program of Google called Google Earth is now available for Mac. For those who don't know what it is, its basically a mapping software... basta its best that you just try it out to see for yourself! :)

    Bacoor Cavite is detailed in fact and also some bulacan area. Notice the brown square spots! I think our city will be more high res if someone will do order of a satellite image of manila so then it will be updated from their database.[​IMG]

    google earth - available for mac

    Hey, google earth is now available for mac. I did a comparison test between google earth and local.live.com and local.live seems to have newer images and better resolution. The sad thing is, it doesn't want to work with any of our macs. I had to use a PC to test it. Google earth, though works well with my mac. Tried looking out over Manila but the resloution on our part of the globe isn't very good. The images are better over HK and the states. In the states, you can see details like cars and people and dogs and stuff. Pretty cool.
