It's incredible, I agree.

Even CNN uses it during broadcasts.

That is insane. Does that mean I can keep an eye on my girlfriend 24/7?!

The only thing that stinks about google earth, is that the USA seems to be the only place you can get great detail on zoom ins

Brutus, I have yet to see a Google earth shot with people in it. Cars yes, people no.


They either have software that does it or they do it manually. Thing that I hated was trying to close in on Sri Lanka, made me think google earth is worthless. It really is only good for surfing USA. Some things never change.
