We have two very obvious examples to push; the real time VOEvent feed (s) into Google Sky via VOEventNet and eSTAR, and the PLASTIC- enabling of Google Sky, which makes it accessible from other VO tools... and crucially allows you to push any VO data you want from the backend vis our middleware into Google Sky for visualisation.
What journal though, PASP perhaps? Or A&A... I don't think MNRS or ApJ would take it?
