Am I correct in my thinking-that you need to have a Google account to be able to add content to a G Map that has been designated as an open collaboration map? With our students, I'm also interested in having a little more flexibility with what I media I can use. Google Maps documentation says that it will accept a YouTube video, but no one can seem to get it to work. Also, I'm interested in posting other kinds of resources, such as embeddable code from Evoca.com and from Slideshare, and unfortunately, that's not supported in Maps. You are right, the rich text editor is very nice, I'm not really sure why they haven't put something like that into Earth. Thanks for your comment and link.

What a fabulous graphic header! This post is one I am going to share with teachers. I didn't know about this free online html editor. Thanks for sharing and also for laying out easy to understand directions on how to generate and paste the code in Google Earth. The project you are doing with students sounds exciting. Hi David,

I used Google Collaborative Maps feature online and when editing placemark windows they just clicked on "rich text" when in edit mode. They can add text, pics, links, and other the other usual formatting. David…I had kids do a similar task on Google Maps but they didn’t need to use the online html editor.
