Google Earth now works with Edge, Firefox, and Opera

Google Earth now works on the Firefox, Border, and Opera browsers. Until recently, Google Earth was limited to Google's Chrome browser. To make Google Earth work on more browsers, Google utilized WebAssembly. Google explains how it got it to work on other browsers and the limitations it still has in a Medium post.

The Medium mail service is authored past Jessi Beck and Hashemite kingdom of jordan Mears from the Google Earth team. It explains that when Google Earth was first created, it was built on Native Client, which only works on Chrome. Google moved Google World to WebAssembly, and beta tested it over the last six months. This opened it upward to several other browsers as WebAssembly is a more open spider web standard.

Google says that it still needs to smoothen the experience of Google Earth on not-Chrome browsers. It also points out that Safari is not supported at this time.

Google has received criticism lately about how it treats other browsers. Earlier today, we reported that Google sends popular-ups to people trying to access certain Google services on the new Microsoft Border. In contrast, this motility to bring Google Globe to more browsers seems more open and positive than Google's recent moves regarding the new Microsoft Border.
