I've found myself recently wishing for a "globe" mode, akin to what's available in Google Earth, to better see some large-scale scale and distance interests that have come up for me.
- crazygringo 13y agoIt's already in the new Google Maps, if you've requested a beta preview.
- pasbesoin 13y agoOh, ok. Thanks!

- modeless 13y agoThat's the old Google Maps. In the new version no plugin is required because it uses WebGL, and Earth mode replaces satellite mode entirely.
