Sure you would of all seen Googles Map, well now it has Satellite.

Type your street address in the search, when it comes up click on satellite on top right, zoom in for a better look :P

If your in North America it'll zoom in really well, don't be surprised if you see yourself mowing the lawn lol

This is bordering on privacy invasion, what if hubby is at his girlfriend's house when these photos were taken, and his charming wife sees it? :)

:) Kool, thanks Donna. This will be very useful for me. It shows me tons of the back roads up in the mountains where I live. This will be really useful. I bookmarked it so I can remember.. :D I really like the satellite pictures.

Best Regards,

Jason :D

Compared to Mapquest and Yahoo, the mapping is wonderful. The satellite is a nice feature aswell to mark landmarks :).

Whatever market you can think of, Google is connected somehow. Google will one day take over the world and make us all into server processors, Matrix-style :huh:

Keyhole is much better, Its easeir to find things but on trial mode you can only view the U.S. but if you wanna pay $500 to view the whole world go ahead :D
