Poll Results On Esri Arcgis Online Vs Google Earth Builder, And New Poll On Cloud Gis

Thanks to Andrew who found out that the poll engine was strangely behaving, it gave me an excuse to offer you a new poll on 'cloud GIS'.

The previous poll on Esri ArcGIS Online vs Google Earth Builder generated 213 votes. 42% of users anticipate that both will be successes in their own way, and funnily enough, two distinct groups made of 24% of users believe that one will prevail on the other. For what's left, 7% think neither will gain momentum and there's even 2% of users that wish that Bing Maps will prevail over the two front runners.

Kite Aerial Photography in Google Earth

You may recall that our friend Frank Taylor of Google Earth Blog has been sailing around the world. Recently he made headlines because his kite aerial photography of Manihi atoll in French Polynesia, taken last May, has been added to Google Earth. CNet, Gizmodo. Not, apparently, the first time this has happened: he’s taking such pictures along the way. I wonder if this could happen more often.
