Ancient Rome in 3D - Aeneas - 11-16-2008
Google Earth has a great 3D virtual tour of ancient Rome in 3D. Take a look at the intro:

it's nice, but, anyways, knowing the fact it is not real, leaves you not the best impression. Google earth will make people travel less, which is bad indeed.

WoW, it's an awesome view, but same with Benn, I would prefer to travel and catch the beautiful sceneries with my own digital cameras

Unless you have a time machine, I don't see how you could do that. But you could look at the ruins. For some people, that's enough for their imagination to travel back in time. I personally like a bit of reconstruction. And the digital reconstruction works fine (for me).

why is this free? what's the google's profit and point from showiong this stuff for free?
Imagine a discussion at a round table - "Have you been to Rome?"
"Not yet, my internet is down"

How beautiful and perfect is created a virtual world not ever exchange to the real one. However the reality is the most surprising and amazing!
