Very cool. I read this yesterday over at www.searchengineland.com.
It’s a super cool hidden feature in the new Google Earth that was recently found.
Apparently there’s a flight simulator buried in there. Here are some YouTube videos:
Love the music with this next one!
I think this one might be an integration between Google Earth and FS2004…
OK, where to begin?
I mean, what’s not to like about this?
Registering domain names. We all know that’s the start of good things. 
French Maids. More good things.
So, when we have 3 French Maids teaching us how to do such mundane things like find music you like, how to barter online, how to share photos and, as mentioned, how to buy a domain name…well, you know what they say…c’est un certain bon poulet! (that is some good chicken!)
OK, so maybe it’s just me that says that - either way, this tongue-in-cheek, funny, but helpful video series is going to be a hit with loads of people.
They stray close to a work-unfriendly line, but really, in 2007, shouldn’t you be able to see a tub full of bubbles with two cute ladies sitting in it without someone pitching a fit? really, though, it’s all tasteful (IMO) and there is zero adult content. 
It’s a unique idea - well, really a new twist on an old idea, but still. It bridges the gap between entertaining and informative…and damned if their instructions for registering a domain name weren’t spot on! It’s very clearly designed to help beginners in it’s topics. I don’t believe they have a French Maid How To series on link baiting, web design or SEO…though I’d tune in to that one…
…and if you weren’t sure how to share photos, enjoy…
Beyond just the SEMPO research mention, this vid has some interesting info. The presenter, while attractive, is maybe trying a bit too hard for some ‘funnies”, but hey, she’s still delivering the goods.
Video on the Net Alliance Shall Organize and Educate Industry, Users, and Governments to Promote Growth and Evolution of Video on the Net Industry
www.pulver.com announced the formation of the Video on the Net Alliance (”the Alliance”), an international initiative designed to advance the interests of the Internet video industry. The Alliance will advocate on behalf of the emerging video on the Net community, focusing on educating the industry, users and government about the promise of Internet video and the best policy framework to foster innovation and evolution of Internet video. Members of the Alliance will include the multitude of providers, innovators, vendors, entrepreneurs, users, and enthusiasts currently developing, deploying and using Internet video services and applications throughout the world.
“It is essential that we, the members of the Internet video community, dive into the political and policy debates shaping the future of the Internet, video, media and entertainment,” said Jonathan Askin, cofounder and Executive Director of the Alliance. “If we don’t engage government, rules will be established by those without all the necessary information and without the best interests of the Internet video industry and users. It is incumbent upon the leaders of the nascent industry to play in the political arena, to educate government and to shape the rules and solutions to the policy issues confronting this new industry.”
“The nascent video on the Net industry must learn, and learn quickly, how to engage policymakers and speak with a unified and consistent voice, or rules will be set for this emerging industry by those who might not know what policies would best advance Internet video,” Askin added.
“The Alliance will work to ensure that content creators and users world- wide are able to realize the full promise of Internet video,” noted Jeff Pulver, cofounder and Chair of the Alliance. “The Alliance has taken on this challenge in an effort to preserve consumer choice, foster competition, encourage innovation and promote investment in Internet video.”
“The goal of the Alliance is to provide a mechanism to allow for advocacy cooperation between players in the Internet video community,” Pulver added. “We understand that there are many disparate entities throughout the world attempting to solve the various issues confronting the Internet video community. Our hope is that the Alliance will allow us all to avoid wasted, redundant efforts to promote similar social objectives and to foster the rapid deployment and ubiquity of video on the Net under the most conducive political and regulatory environment.”
