I'm sure this is really old news, but I am having a great time playing with Google Earth (earth.google.com)! I'm going around to all the places I know and the places I want to go to and taking a peek. I almost feel creepy

 

I can't believe they can provide it all free. I guess it's a game of name recognition more than anything.

 

yea, i play around with it during lectures

 

google earth is teh coolness, but have u guys tried this?

I could see my old car and my dad's old car, with CERTAINTY

 

It is NOT amazing. It is 5-7 years out of date! The new state hwy near my office that opened a few years back is not even on there.

 

google earth uses the same aerial photos that mapquest has been using for what 6-7 years or more? All they did is add a pretty interface that runs kinda slow.

 

i like screwing around with it but i live in the country and it doesn't come into view as clearly as the urban areas

 

just wish google would take their email out of "beta" and they wanted to change how people use email?

thier email server is slow in my area.

 

How can people even complain about a free program that lets you browse the globe whether its 5-7 year old maps or not. Who else offers a superior program for FREE.

 

on the windows live pictures you can get alot closer than google earth. i zoomed in to some places pretty close. it's just not as easy to use as google
