There is a piece of free software called "QuakeMap" that does essentially the same thing. It takes track information from your GPS, like a Garmin or a Magellan, and photos from your digital camera and shows the track of where you've been on aerial photos similar to GoogleEarth. It shows small icons where all of the pictures were taken and if you hover the mouse over them, it pops up the photograph(s) that was taken at that location. I give it a "100" on the Geek-O-Meter. Loads of fun.
