A private investor for 20+ years, I manage private portfolios and write about investing. You can read my market musings on three different sites: 1) The Deipnosophist, dedicated to teaching the market's processes and mechanics; 2) Investment Poetry, a subscription site dedicated to real time investment recommendations; and 3) Seeking Alpha, a combination of the other two sites with a mix of reprints from this site and all-original content. See you here, there, or the other site!

Google Earth

The comments of Google Earth are from Brad Hill...

"Google has released Earth, which is a significant cosmetic upgrade to Keyhole that also incorporates more complete global satellite imagery. The best news is that Earth is free, as hoped, whereas Keyhole required an annual subscription. (Earth Plus costs $20, and provides GPS support and better annotation tools for marking up the screen. Earth Pro is for institutional use — flyover maps for weather forecasts, and such.)

"Google Earth is highly recommended to broadband users. It adds a fabulous dimension to local search, and is tremendously fun on its own. Earth is arguably Google’s best product." (Wow! -- dmg)
