SketchUp: Google's Latest Cool Free Download

I've been using SketchUp for about a year to visualize a number of ideas for remodeling our house. I paid full-freight for the tool, and glad that I did. It's really useful.

About 3-4 months ago, SketchUp’s web site announced they had been acquired by Google. I couldn’t image what Goggle wanted with SketchUp.

Goggle recently announce what they intend to do with the program: give a lightweight, free version away, and link it with a “3D Warehouse".

While I’m not sure I really understand the vision, I appreciate the technology – we’ll just have to see where it all goes…
