I've never bothered to push the "google map" button but did so today. Cool , using the satellite view I zoomed in on my house and b'ugger me there's my car parked outside exactly where it's parked today ! Does anybody know how often these satellite photo's are taken ?

It could have a major bearing on small scale agriculture in this country

Tried that , knocked a hole in the ceiling and installed all the hydrophonic gear , then the upstairs neighbours returned from their holiday . They were f'uckin' furious !

Its fantastic. I discovered google earth last year (feb i think). Still use it today.

What i posted before:

Ok here is an example of what you can do.

Start screen

Zooming into New York (Manhattan)

Just by using the mouse wheel you can get closer

Now it gets interesting. You can tilt the view and turn 3-D buildings on.

with this view you can actually take a walk through the city. This 3-D option only works for american cities, but other options like roads, resturants etc work for all cities i have looked at so far.

anyone managed to use that Microsoft Virtual Earth? I downloaded the software but its well slow at loading. Even with the settings lowered. Mind you it does say - Beta.
