ArcGIS and Google Synchronization? Virtual Earth (Bing) and Google Earth combined.

Update: CLICK HERE TO SEE MY NEWER POST for Google earth and ArcGIS Synchronization:

I was trying to find a better synchronizing tool for ArcGIS on the desktop and the google earth or map option. I came across this virtual earth and google hybrid dual map. If you have street view in your area, you can actually see it too. This is kinda cool. I have noticed some youtube videos on the synchronized google earth and Arc, in which you could draw a line or polygons in either one of them and it will appear on both. I don't know if you can actually get a shapefile or kml as a result. I am sure there gotta be a way to save it. But, anyway, I could not find a lot of materials on the web. I am still looking for one...if you know of any please send me a link.

For now, this dual hybird of google and virutal earth on the web. Of course, if you are interested, let me know I will direct you to the link.

Yes, I had updated my newer post with a similar link from ArcScript. I need to double check to know if it is the same but it does work the same way. Thanks for the link!

Does this still exist? The link just brings me to the general script page.
