Mt Jefferson, formerly known as "lo res white blob".I just upgraded Google Earth and where once was white blobs in the cascades are now beautiful, richly detailed mountains. Its nowhere near 100% complete but we're seeing the potential as more map data is integrated into the system. According to Google, 20% of the earth is now covered by hi res imagery and 33% of the worlds population can now see their home.
The UI is quite slick as well, not normally a Google strong point. Its intuative, transparent and immediately user friendly. Overall, this is a great addition...now if I could only watch climbers in real time on Mt Hood...
