Myth BUSTERS

MYTH:

"Google Sketchup is more of a TOY for doing cute 3D scenes."


That is a myth!  you will learn it has many PRO uses...
  and an important part of Google Earth, and things like Google Ro.me, amazing!

This Single video might convince you that it is much more than a cute 3D tool.

To repeat, we are using Sketchup to learn JavaScript and the fundamentals of programming.
