Here are two programs developed by Google that have some great potential for use as educational opportunities, or to just check out during your own online explorations.
The first is a new feature on Google Earth. The newest download of Google Earth features a 3-dimensional look at what Ancient Rome probably looked like in about the year 320 C.E. during the rule of Constantine. After downloading the new Google Earth, find the "Gallery" under the Layers section. Check off Ancient Rome in 3D and download the different ways to check it all out. There are a lot of buildings to look at in 3D and some of the famous ones you can even browse the interiors of. There are also plenty of opportunities to learn about how the Romans lived.
The other cool feature from Google is an interactive map of the United States that reports flu trends across the country. Currently, the flu activity in Utah is LOW. The data is complied from Google searches from people across the nation.
