Cool Satellite Maps

Wow, they have satellite maps, zoom close enough to see your house! I suggest useing the map part to zoom right into your neighborhood, then go to satellite. It's cool, kinda creepy, but cool.

"We're sorry, but we don't have imagery at this zoom level for this region. Try zooming out for a broader look."

Aw, and I wanted to see my house.

The Netherlands are made of endless green fields, apparently :P

My neighborhood is too new to be on there. :P

O_O Wow. That is so cool.

I'm sure I can find my building if I knew where it was on the map. *is incredibly bad at geo*

Edit: ooookaay and now I can't figure out my building from a swarm of them.

I was checking out that feature a few days ago ^_^ It's awsome... although I couldn't zoom near my house blah!

MSN is going to do something similar soon.

I remember trying this a while ago... My house wasn't up then and it still isn't. Israel looks like one big green blob.

I managed to find my dads house in NJ though.

Wow! I had fun "driving" from my school to my house with this!

Actually, at my school, we have a new building where that rectangle patch of green is. But my school is REALLY TINY compared to y'alls.

I live across the street from two jails, so they blot those out. I'll show my school instead.

Ignore the dark holes, those just tend to appear around Leger sometimes. I remember when poor Mabel fell into one... Never did get her out.
