CBS adds video to Google Earth

Cory Bergman October 16th, 2006

By subscribing to a KML feed, you can add CBS video into Google Earth, pinpointed by location. CBSNews.com explains how to do it from this page:

Click the KML button to the left and copy the URL from your browser’s address bar. Open Google Earth and click on the “Network Link” option under the “Add” menu and paste the feed URL into the “Link” field. Fill in the “Name” field with “CBS News” and click “OK”.

A lot of work (and hence a big hurdle for users), but very cool nonetheless…

    Now we can easily visualize how a network news division is East Coast centric.

    Yep. Especially when you consider the LA stories are entertainment-related and the Seattle story is mislocated.

    And lemme guess… the N. Idaho bullet is the Joseph Duncan story today? So there will be a bullet on that area again sometime around…. never.

    You might want to mention that in IE, when I clicked the KML button, it automatically added the CBS link into my Google Earth.

    FireFox tried to download the file or link and it didn’t seem to work.

    Overall though, might help those high school and college students learn more about geography. Or not.
