Doesn't work for me... I'm guessing it requires webgl, which chrome won't do on my video-card.


Doesn't work for me either, and I'm definitely webgl-capable. Maybe it's just a limited rollout?


Looks like it requires the Google Earth plugin:

"The plug-in is also used on Earth view in Google Maps."


This page breaks the back button.


Any idea how/why this page breaks ⌘-N? Any idea how to turn it off?
