Businesses layer for Google Earth on your iPhone


Since we announced the Google Earth for iPhone application, I've been enjoying my virtual trips around the globe. However, what I find it especially useful for is putting search in a local context.


The Google Earth application shows great satellite imagery, which is always handy to get a first impression of a neighborhood. But imagine having businesses displayed on the screen - how helpful could that be to get to know your location better?

Today, we added a 'Businesses' layer to Google Earth on iPhone, as well as to the 'Geographic Web' folder in the desktop Google Earth version. To make them easily discoverable, you'll see them by default when you start the application next time. You'll find businesses like restaurants, bars, banks, gas stations, and grocery stores all just a touch away. By clicking on the icons, you'll get additional information like the telephone number, reviews, hours, and much more. And don't forget, as you zoom in further, more businesses become visible.



Have fun exploring your current location - and let this virtual world help you discover new things in the real world.

iPhone AT&T


Well as for me, when I did have the iPhone I was quite impressed. I didn't really have a problem with connection, because I was always connected. I didn't have 3G so I couldn't really say much about the new iPhone's that have a 3G speed. My only worry about the iphone was, I couldn't go on the internet and be on the phone at the same time. I tried connecting to WiFi, but it couldn't work. It worked like the first day I got it, but other than that..I was set. But what do other people think about the big rumor about iPhone hitting up Verizon? I can't imagine that at all. haha I think that's going to be really trippy. But I know that Verizon's network, isn't all that reliable as it says on their commercials am I right? If you're in that Dead zone, you'll be stuck there basically. haha As for me, I really was impressed about AT&T and their network. They better have a good network, because I seriously couldn't believe that their prices are so expensive still! WE'll see how it goes for Verizon, if they get the iPhone that'll be a good business deal for them. Good luck Verizon. haha

Early review of the iPhone 3.0

I'm still so mad that they have all these features! It's okay though because my blackberry is better )= haha Touch screen was never for me anyway! For the past week, I've been able to play with the beta version on the new iPhone OS 3.0. As you probably know, the 3.0 update brings a long list of features to the iPhone including multimedia messaging, cut and paste and a landscape keyboard. As I said last week, iPhone 3.0 has more many more hits than misses, particularly since it finally adds some very basic features that almost every other cell phone has.

Since this is a beta version, I'm not going to get hung up on the obvious bugs. Yes, my iPhone is much slower, and it has a tendency to crash more often, but such problems are to be expected on an OS that's not quite ready for the real world. Instead, I will tell you about my general experience form a usability standpoint.

Cut, cop and paste This is just as Apple execs described at the OS 3.0 announcement. Just double tap a selection to get the cut/copy/paste commands to appear. You then can change the highlighted area by dragging the blue 'grab points' around the page. Once you get to your pasting area, just tap the screen again and select the 'paste' button. I like the 'shake to undo' option, as well. There's just one caveat: at present it seems to be working for notes only.

Landscape keyboard This is one of those 'careful what you wish for' situations. After haranguing Apple over the past twenty months to give us a landscape keyboard for texting, notes and e-mail, I have to admit that it does take some acclimation now that I have it. Though the landscape keyboard is much wider with larger buttons, it's also a lot shorter. It did take me a couple of days to get the hang of it. Don't think that I'm not complaining, though, as it's quite the opposite. I love being able to use two hands, but I had grown accustomed to the one finger tap dance on the vertical keyboard. On the other hand, the new ability to view my e-mail inbox in landscape mode
