New update: around 300,000 photos added to Google Earth

On Monday April 7th Google Earth updated the Panoramio layer adding around 300,000 new photos, that was earlier than we expected (April 12th).

Selected images up to ID 8,620,000 are now in Google Earth. The next update will be online on May 25th and will include photos reviewed until May 5th.

  1. Thanks Eduardo, but did you mean April 5th or May 5th as cut off for reviewed photos?

  3. April 7 to May 25 is about seven weeks.
    Why such a long gap between updates?

  8. Thanks Tony.

    It was Eduardo's reply to your post on APR 18th (above) that got me confused.

  9. I meant to add ......

    Pity Eduardo didn't explain the reason for such long gap between uploads.
    I think seven weeks is excessive and may lead to some users losing interest. I'm normally a very patient chap , but even I find such a long delay , added to the long review times , extremely frustrating and annoying.
