Google announced the addition of location-specific YouTube videos to its Google Earth app.

Wired's Epicenter tested it and found a good amount of videos already in place in Bangkok, "including videos from tourists on a boat cruising down the Chao Phraya river."

Other location-specific features include "locationally-linked photos, 3D buildings," and content piped in from partners like Discovery Networks, National Geographic, and the UN.

Google also announced six new metropolitan additions to its Street View maps: Chicago, Portland, Pittsburgh, Phoenix, Tucson and Philadelphia.
