Earthbrowser and Cosmosaver

a while ago, i had a cool screensaver called earthbrowser. i got it free form .Mac i believe and while i dont have it now, i have always recieved emails about the program called earthbrowser and decided to take a second look. the maker of earthbrowser has made a new screen save called cosmosaver, here are a couple reviews:

Earthbrowser
with the invention of Google earth, this program might seem obsolete at first, but because it still can display information that google earth doesn't (so far), for information junkies this program may still be worth the $23.95 price of registration.

here are some features taken from the site:
Features
- Amazing 15 meter per pixel resolution worldwide
- Three high resolution 500m base maps of the earth
- Satellite overlays updated daily
- Global weather forecasts for over 17,000 locations
- Live hurricane and tropical storm tracking
- A full year of weekly sea surface temperature animations
- Satellite cloud animations are updated every 3 hours
- Live earthquake map with magnitudes and links
- Live ocean buoy data for over 250 buoys
- Antarctic iceberg tracking
- Daily fire hotspot display
- Hundreds of dynamic webcams all over the globe
- Add and save your own webcams
- Political borders/Tectonic plate boundaries
- Over 15,000 volcanoes with links to more information
- Screen Saver
- Times in cities of all world time zones
- Links to facts about countries all over the world

the screen saver is what originally alerted me to it, and that is cool enough as it is. give it a try.

Cosmosaver
is similar to the earthbrowser screensaver, but it concentrates on the planets in our system and their orbits. no detailed land maps for mars yet im afraid, but it is really cool to see the moons flying around the gas giants in our systems. this is shareware too.
