Google Earth will run on Android, Google’s mobile platform

Reading Time: < 1 minute

As reported in the New York Times (and detailed on Ogle Earth), the new Google mobile platform will run Google Earth!

Stefan seems to cover the big questions that result from the article:

  • Is it just on a phone, or on a larger device?
  • Is it possible that the reporter is confusing Google Earth and Google Maps?

Stefan answers the questions rather well.
