Wow, that's quite nice. Wonderful idea.
Now Google Earth will be even more bandwidth intensive :D

I wonder how they do the video classification though.. I mean HOW do they know where what movies should go, cause some users don't really name their videos very well.
or will they scan the content? :eek:

And how does the display work when displaying the videos for a specific place. I bet there will be quite a few videos ... will it be based on most popular videos, newest videos, or will it be random rotation?

Anyway, still a very novel idea.
