Since Google released Google Sky a couple of days ago, the number of visitors to this blog has absolutely rocketed. So for anyone wondering where to get the proper ‘Google Earth Sky’ (and not my add-on), it’s included in the latest version of the free Google Earth which can be downloaded from: earth.google.com.   Just follow the links from there to the download page.

Once installed be sure to check out the extras in the layers panel, including live moon and planet postitions.  There are also some cool add-ons available from the Google Earth Gallery.

I’m itching to see what new things can be done in GE 4.2, but frustratingly I’m stuck in an Internet connection timewarp at the moment - no broadband access, just irregular and painfully slow dial-up - hence the lack of recent posts, and comments not getting through.  Fingers crossed I should be back up and running after the weekend.
