Google released a new version of Google Earth yesterday.

If you haven’t played with Google Earth, this is the time to get it. To someone who hasn’t seen Google Earth, I think it is best described as Google Maps on steroid (and if you haven’t tried the latter, it’s like MapQuest on steroids).

There are two things worth noting about this release. The Mac OS X version of the app was released simultaneously with the Windows (and Linux) version. And secondly, Google Earth on Mac OS X is now a Universal Binary. To me this signifies Google’s commitment to the Mac platform.
