If you need a pleasant break in the day...or if it is raining outside,
Check this out:
<font color="red">Google Earth</font> This is really a neat piece of software.

This is the only thing I can compare it to: <font color="green">TerraServer</font>
Also a cool time waster.

Too bad it is not "Real Time" /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif If it were, I doubt it would be free.)

Really great to see this. The photos are at least 3 years old of my place. There is a pine tree that is no longer there, and my drive is paved now. Cant make out the white car but the blue one was a mercury sable I had.

I loaded it and it told me I already had it loaded and my free trial had expired. Then I figured out it was part of Keyhole which I did try out a while back. It is a neat program but unless your in a major city the view is not very accurate. My house has been here now for five years but it still doesn't show up on the program. And if you go way out looking at areas such as northern minnesota you don't see much there either. I really wish Terra-server would update there's and change to color.
