Yann Arthus-Bertrand est connu pour sillonner la planete a bord de montgolfieres, d'avions et autres helicopteres pour prendre de remarquables photographies aeriennes. En marge de ces travaux de photos, Yann Arthus-Bertrand a egalement cree en 2005 l'association GoodPlanet.org, destinee a promouvoir le developpement durable (je n'ai pas mis de lien car a l'heure actuelle le site officiel de Yann Arthus-Bertrand est inaccessible, pour cause de nom de domaine pas renouvele...). Le photographe a declare au sujet de sa collection La Terre vue du Ciel (Earth from Above), reprise en partie dans Google Earth : De son cote, il est clair que Google cherche a (re)dorer son image d'entreprise respectueuse de l'environnement (malgre les Boeing des fondateurs et la facture monstrueuse d'electricite associee aux differents data centers). Voir les photos dans Google Earth Si Google Earth est deja installe sur votre ordinateur, il vous suffit de demarrer le logiciel et d'aller dans la rubrique Infos pratiques de Sensibilisation mondiale en bas a gauche de l'interface de Google Earth et d'activer le fichier dinformations La Terre vue Du Ciel avec GoodPlanet. Sinon, vous pouvez installer Google Earth en quelques clics (gratuitement bien entendu). Il suffit d'installer Google Pack et de selectionner Google Earth dedans :
Un simulateur de vol se cache dans le paysage de Google Earth. Apres la cartographie en 3D et la visualisation des etoiles (Google Sky), voici donc le simulateur de vol gratuit. En un simple Ctrl + Alt + A sur PC, ou Ctrl + pomme + A sur Mac, une boite de dialogue apparait et offre deux choix : piloter un F-16 ou un quatre places Cirrus SR22. Quelques clics plus loin, l’utilisateur peut survoler la Terre « google-isee » grace a un tableau de bord virtuel avec altimetre et indicateur dynamique de points cardinaux. Un guide des commandes est disponible sur le site.
Out of all the Google services, iGoogle saw the largest growth this year with a 267% increase according to comScore data. iGoogle is a personalized homepage where users can install “Gadgets” — anything from egg timers to interesting news feeds. iGoogle was launched May 20, 2005, and so the comparison between 2006 and 2007 is the first year over year comparison available. These impressive numbers may cause some companies with competing products, like NetVibes, to shake a bit in their boots. Other Google products that saw increased usage this year include: · Google Web Search (+20%) · Google Images (+35%) · Google News (+20%) · Google Book Search (+55%) · Google Blog Search (+27%) · Google Maps (+52%) · Google Earth (+11%) · Google Groups (+20%) Where there is success, there is also failure though. Google has a history of cutting fat — so my predictions for 2008 will include the following “losers” being discontinued, or at least completely re-thought. · Google Video Search (-12%) · Google Scholar (-32%) · Google Directory Search (-19%) · Google Products (-73%) Then there is Google Finance, this service hasn’t had any usage swings in either direction. The product just isn’t as powerful as the competition, and investors don’t feel the need to change yet. Google is going to have to think hard about what investors will actually find useful enough to make them “need” Google Fianance — without that, the service will continue to coast along at best.
Tis the season for everyone to chime in with their predictions for the upcoming year — and here are mine. The past year was a good one for Google, their stock gained $200 per share, several new products/services/features were launched, their market share rose to nearly 60%, they have managed to keep their advertising earnings impressive, and have invested significant time and money into the mobile space. · Google Apps got several new features for enterprise users — including Postini, a company Google acquired. · Google Personalized Homepage got “themes” · “Universal Search” for Google Search lets users use a single search box to find anything from news to videos · Street View on Google Maps · Sky View in Google Earth Google Knol will be launched, and immediately be competition for Wikipedia in the SERPS This new product is set to take on Wikipedia — I am guessing it will be launched sometime after the official launch of Wikia, the over-hyped “Google Killer”. Google Knol is a service that will let subject experts create articles, and get paid for them if they are popular. We will learn more about Google TV I’ve been waiting for this forever it seems, and I’m beginning to think it will never show up. Even if there isn’t a dedicated application on the horizon, Google services have been starting to integrate “shared storage” — the stuff you can buy via subscription from Google — and it you will see more Google services using it as its back-end storage system. It seems that buying companies, or at least the people working at them, is what Google likes to do best. Google will continue picking up small companies, and maybe we will even see another massive billion dollar acquisition like YouTube or DoubleClick this year. Partnerships are important for Google too though. I think we will see a stronger partnership between Apple and Google this year — possibly in the wireless world. Rumor has it that Google and Apple bid on the 700mhz spectrum together. For more Google 2008 predictions, you should definitely check out Blogoscoped.

Google GDrive is not a rumor Again, we saw a couple features while digging around through the Google translation tool, however these features have yet to surface. Google Gears integration, and security features that let you view account activity. These two features will make a huge splash when they are finally released. New pictures of the Google Phone It turns out that this was a hoax — there is no “Google Phone”, but there is a Google Phone operating system called Android that was launched later in the year. Google Earth in 4D Google launched historic maps for Google Earth that lets you scroll back in time. There are still no true 3D buildings in Google Earth though, other than the ones people have built with Google SketchUp. I am hoping we will see real buildings before next year. Google scared us by stopping their quota counter. Thankfully it began counting again shortly after it stopped. Google launches Google Reader for the Wii The Google Reader team is all about making their feed reader work on many different types of devices. Most recently, they launched the service with an iPhone interface for people on the go. Google kicks Microsoft where it hurts, again Google started giving away Star Office for free through the Google Updater. The application is a direct competitor to the Microsoft Office suite — and it’s not too shabby either. Google Calendar task list feature Google has been working on the long awaited “Task List” feature for Google Calendar. They have told us that it is on their own task list, and we can expect to see it in a future release.
