Geo-blogging Gombe


The Jane Goodall Institute has integrated the geo-spatial gee-whizzery of Google Earth into its Gombe Chimpanzee Blog. If you've downloaded the free software, you can follow scientist/blogger Emily Wroblewski in her adventures in and around Tanzania's Gombe National Park. In Google Earth, you can "fly" over the preserve, visit pertinent landmarks, read her blog entries, ... even browse the original National Geographic articles on Goodall's historic work with the chimps of Gombe. Very cool.
