I just downloaded this and it only took about one minute.

MY GOD, It's fun.

Seriously, don't download this unless you have tons of free time to screw around and explore the world.

I have already used it to "see" my future road trips from above. You can tilt the screen down to sea level almost so it's not liek you're always looking straight down from space. It's like I'm flying over the freeways in a helicopter really really fast. SO AWESOME. I've seen the Taj Mahal, Mt. Everest, Hong Kong, tried to find Bill Gates' house (I think it's blurred, lol) and the list goes on and on and on. I can't stop, it's almost more addicting than rdtiburon.com

just wanted to see if anyone else is as addicted as I am and if not, well...you will be. Google ownz you!

 

I will have to check it out... from what I remember reading on Bill Gates' house.. it is VERY hidden in the trees

 

s'all good. I've seen it in person. He's got imported sand from somewhere and 24/7 guards standing on his beach with sunglasses and wearing all balck. Just standing gaurd perfectly still, man he's so freakin rich! lol

google earth beats mapquest by FAR! lol

 

Yeah I've spent probably a GOOD 10 hours playing with it already. Freakin' amazing. My favorite is the 3D buildings feature.

Another cool thing: under Tools > Options set the "Elevation Exaggeration" to "2". Makes the mountains and hills much cooler looking. fing02.gif

 

I'll definatley have to check it out

 

The new Sonatas are being made in a barn!




LOL, I guess they are rather old images.

 

Yeah, it says up to three years old.

 

Allright this is too depressing, you know the saying "You can never go back home". I have been looking up places I lived when I was a kid and the areas have totally changed.

 

Anyone else find their Tiburon in the picture?

I found mine, and my old excel.

 

Nah, I don't know how old the picture is so I have no idea if I even lived here at the time.
