Google SketchUp Blog Launches

Google has launched a new blog for SketchUp, its free 3D modeling software. They’ve actually been blogging for almost two months in almost secret, so there are a lot of posts to catch up on, including:

The little guy who appears in the beginning of a SketchUp project is a picture of a member of the SketchUp team, and he doesn’t like it when you delete him.
May was Moustache Month at Google? How come there wasn’t a tidal wave of embarressing photos of Googlers trying to grow moustaches?
Animated models and real-time shadows for SketchUp models in Google Earth.
They’re hiring SketchUp trainers to teach people how to use the software.
How to wrap an image around a cylinder.
There’s even a SketchUp podcast.
They’ve warranted their own For Dummies book, Google SketchUp For Dummies
They’re holding a user experience study.
