Model the world with Google SketchUp 8

    
     It’s been 10 years (long time ago :P) since the first version of Google SketchUp was released, and there are more people modeling in SketchUp now that we ever could have imagined over a million of you a week, in fact. That’s a pretty humbling number of 3D model makers.





    
     People around the world are modeling everything from a new design for their kitchen to entire cities in Google Earth. For their small part in this global phenomenon, they announce that SketchUp 8, the next major version of their 3D modeling tool, is available for download today. They have added significant new geo-modeling capabilities that leverage Google’s vast collection of geo-spatial data to make it quicker, easier and more fun than ever to build models of the world.
