UPDATE: Civil3d.com Toolbar now available

Posted by Mark Scacco, P.E. on 5th July 2007

Wow. In the 2 days before July 4th, nearly 100 people downloaded the new civil3d.com toolbar.  You can download it by clicking the link at the very bottom of the column at right. 

In our ongoing efforts to get you information about all things related to Civil 3D, we’ve created a civil3d.com toolbar for IE and FireFox. You probably didn’t notice it, but at the very bottom of the column at the right, there is a link for downloading the toolbar.

Version 1 of our toolbar lets you search either the civil3d.com website or several other sites dedicated to civil 3d directly from your web browser. Results are displayed in a Google-like results page. Additionally, we have added some buttons for website links, RSS feeds, messages from the civil3d.com team, and a live chat feature for talking with other civil3d.com readers and bloggers that are online the same time you are.  See the download link after the jump.

How Google Earth (Really) Works.

Posted by Mark Scacco, P.E. on 5th July 2007

This will be a very short post.  The Google Earth feature in Civil 3D has gotten a lot (too much IMO) attention lately. So what to do? Join ‘em! I just read an interesting article about Google Earth and how it works. The article has nothing to do with Civil 3D, but you may find it interesting, nonetheless. You can check it out by following this link.

Enjoy!
