First, a confession, I was a prior user of Maptitude 4.5, but havent 
used in a long time. 

I HAVE been a recent user of Google Earth and love the ease of use, 
the ability to import MY data into it (Maptitude join tables 
function used to drive me crazy), and the size of files makes GE a 
fantastic tool for distribution of maps that the lay person can 
actually view and use as long as they have high speed internet 
connection. 

Add ons to GE are starting to appear also. Batch Geocode allows 
geocoding of up to 500 addresses at a time, using copy paste from an 
Excel template. Free.

Graphics in GE admittedly lag behind other software. However, the 
newest add on is Arc2Earth allowing exporting of ESRI maps and their 
graphics to Google Earth format. $100

I tried to search all prior posts using "Google Earth" but found 
nada.

Questions:
1. How come no discussions on Google Earth?
2. Any attempts by group members to export their maps into a Google 
EArth format?
3. Anyone looked at documentation for Arc2Earth to see if Maptitude 
exports of Arview Maps could be imported into Arc2Earth for export 
back into Google Earth files?
3. Any plans by Caliper to integrate GE map export functionality in 
future upgrades, or development of a GE plug ins?

As they say, "Inquiring minds would like to know"
