I've never heard of Google Earth alternatives. Any recommendations?

For a while before there was a free GE, Nasa World Winds had a pretty active community around it.

It would need lots of work to become a real alternative though.

Depending on the use case, Falcon View is an alternative.

We're using ArcGIS Explorer (free)which has tons of issues itself but fills the need for a lot of people, or a full version of ArcGIS ($$$).
