1. After reading your posting, I wanted to try it, but ended up with the following message:

"Google Earth downloads temporarily delayed

"Thanks for your interest in Google Earth, but we're sorry we can't offer you a download right now. As you know, Google Earth is in beta, and we're still building out our ability to take on new users. We're making good progress, and expect to be able to accept new downloads shortly, so we recommend you check back daily at earth.google.com. We hope to be able to welcome you and other new planet surfers soon.

"We appreciate your patience,

The Google Earth Team"

2. Yeah, I don't know what's up with Google Earth downloads. Presumably Google is scaling up its user base slowly to keep performance at a high level.

3. Realtor.com probably won't get to this level of sophistication for years. It is painful to switch from a service like ZipRealty.com to Google Maps to something else and so on. Whoever can create the "ultimate" real estate search will be interesting to see, it definitely doesn't exist yet. (Google?)

4. Hi-- I'm having trouble installing the Chicago Real Estate Network Link. If I 'open' the file, I get the Installshield Wizard which doesnt do anything much, or if I 'save' it, I dont know how to install the .kmz file so as to get the Network Link in 'My Places'. Can you help??

Well, I have to tell you, it's REALLY easy to put your listings into Google Earth format, and it's REALLY easy to automate the process so that the representation in Google Earth is up-to-date at all times.

All it takes is a bit of vision, which most Realtors don't have. For the most part, this industry and most Realtors do not use technology effectively or with too much imagination.

At my site, I have my own Google Earth KML file for my Chicago area listings and sales - it's terribly, terribly, easy to do.
