    Google Sketchup does stuff like this, so does Microsoft Visio :)

    o, well yea Sketchup is good, but I strongly recomend getting a hold of AutoCAD. It is worth 50 times the learning curve. Also try ArchiCAD, it is easier but pretty pricy.

    I think Google Sketchup may be more 3d.

    If you want overhead floor plans I would use Visio :)

    I would also recommend AutoCad..its hard for a reason. If you can learn to use the program you will have an edge up in the interview room!

    Google Sketchup
    The free version isn't really that great, but it gets things done
