The images in Google Earth (and Google Maps) are updated on a continuous basis. It's hard to say exactly when an area will be updated because some areas may be updated more frequently than others.

For details see the related question.

Well, Google Earth is a very popular company to view our world, but there's one called " Microsoft Virtual Earth " as I know of. It isn't as great and updated as Google Earth is, but it is another company. Also, unlike Google Earth, you don't have to download Microsoft Virtual Earth.

Google Maps (and Google Earth) are updated together and bulk updates usually once or twice every month but NOT every area is updated on each update.It's hard to say exactly when a given area will be updated because Google does not provide advance notice and some areas may be updated more frequently than others (just because that data is more readily available). While most images are no more than 3 years old, you may occasionally see an older image.Due to overwhelming demand when a given area will be updated Google has created a new e-mail notification service. Check out 'Follow Your World' in related links below.
On average the imagery in Google Maps and Google Earth is approximately one to three years old so this is not uncommon. However, the more populous areas and major cities tend to be updated more often.
Google never lets on when it will update an area. You can, however, subscribe to e-mail notifications via Google's new 'Follow Your World' app to receive e-mail when the area is updated. If enough people subscribe to a given area then Google can use that to prioritize which areas get updated.
Google Earth should automatically prompt you to update, whether it be through the app stores or not, when a newer and updated version is up. If this doesn't happen you may have to allow for this to prompt you to update when there is a new version out or to simply check back every so often to see if it needs an update.
