BBC News RSS to GoogleEarth

Finally got a BBC RSS news feed on to Google Earth.

If you've got Google Earth installed just follow this link:

If you want to use another feed, then use the Add Network Link option in Google Earth, and paste in this URL, changing the URL parameter for your feed of choice (RSS/RDF/ATOM).

Update - Looks like this little project might have some legs so I've added a page for it at the Daden site. See www.daden.co.uk/newsglobe.

I can really see Google Earth becoming a world browser. Now if only I could have it on continuous animation on a wall-screen TV.......
