- CadalystAEC polls industry insiders as to what’s in store for SketchUp and Google Earth. It’s an interesting read.

- The Daily Graze notes a neologism coined at a Game Developers’ Conference roundtable last week: “M3S”, which stands for “Massive Multi-player MySpace”, such as Second Life, and which will be populated with SketchUp content, of course. (Aside: What are new acronyms called? neocronyms?)
