ArcGIS Explorer and the uphill climb

Link - Google Earth vs. ArcGIS Explorer

As tired as some are of all the ArcGIS Explorer noise they have been hearing, it isn't even a dent into the amount of Google Earth posts. This just shows that ESRI doesn't have a hill to climb, but a mountain. In fact beyond a few blogs in our little GIS circle, not a peep has shown up on more mainstream blogs and sites.
