Google Earth - Explore the World from your desktop

Google Earth - Home
Install this software and you will be able to see the world as it looked in 2002. I think thats the year currently in the database. I am sure there are plans to update this.

I am waiting for the day i can see the pictures in realtime. I will be able to zoom in to Picadilly in London and see the activity or look for my wife's car when she says she is lost on the beltway.

I used Google earth to search for places around the world. I think if nothing else it increased my Geography IQ.

It does have cool added features - You can search for the nearest gas station or pizza place to a location.

It compares with MSN's Virtual Earth - see next post
