Google services are more scattered and they are not really integrated with one another. Google is slowly integrating its services, today Google announced the integration of [tag]Youtube[/tag] videos in Google earth.
While searching Google earth now you can find videos geotagged with the location. Youtube videos which are geotagged will be available in Google earth as a video layer and this is in the “featured content” folder of Google earth.
You’ll find this new layer in the ‘Featured Content’ folder in the left-side panel of Google Earth. Just click on the ‘YouTube’ button, and icons will begin to appear all over the globe. You can search for videos of your favorite places or browse videos of your dream vacation destination. More videos will appear as you zoom into a particular place. And you have the option of either playing them in Google Earth or viewing them on YouTube.

Google seems to be improving all its utilities, even this is a good move, but not sure how much this is helpful.
Pretty interesting! What I really wish is for Google to integrate Picasa with Gmail and Google Calendar! I’ll find that a lot more useful!
@Nirmal,
It will be useful for the traveller
@Aseem
This is definitely an useful feature
Google’s primary focus seems like integrating one or more applications with each other. I remember Google Boys giving a call to their employees to stop building new apps and start improving existing one.
