Google Keyhole

I was catching up tonight on this "Keyhole" company Google recently acquired. It's pretty amazing stuff. From their website:

Keyhole is the 3D digital earth pioneer—the only company to deliver a 3D digital model of the entire earth via the Internet. Keyhole’s groundbreaking EarthStream™ technology combines advanced 3D graphics and network streaming innovations to produce a high performance system that runs on standard PC’s and commodity servers. Both high performance and intuitive to use, Keyhole’s solutions enable anyone to manipulate a rich map of the earth composed of imagery and feature information.

Also from the site:

Google's mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful.

What a mission statement.
