Google announced its new release of Google SketchUp 7, a software that enables you to build 3D models, such as a house, killer robots, furniture, tress, abstract art, and even models of Google Earth. The uses of SketchUp 7 are vast as architects and engineers you it in designing buildings and other structures. Woodworkers use it to plan their projects, and you can even decide where to place your furniture using this as well. Here are some of the features added into the new version:

• Making it even easier to get started – There’s a new class of "smart" objects called Dynamic Components, which are simpler to work with for new modelers. Take a look at the video above to understand more.
• Making it easier to share what you make and collaborate with other people – There’s a better link between SketchUp and the rest of the 3D world, made it possible to "sign" your models, and they’ve added Google Docs–style collaboration and sharing to their 3D Warehouse.
• Adding powerful features for experienced SketchUp Pro users – SketchUp is only half of the SketchUp Pro suite; the other half is all about sharing your work with your clients. LayOut 2 (which is now officially out of beta and rarin’ to go) lets you create multi-page documents and presentations. Models are linked to your Layout file so that changing the former automatically updates the latter.
