Google Earth

I just read about this. Want to know more about a specific location? Dive right in -- Google Earth combines satellite imagery, maps and the power of Google Search to put the world’s geographic information at your fingertips. I tried it myself and it seems it is integrated with google's local search. Seems like a nice tool but im a none US citizen so for me there is no use. I just checked the colussuem in Rome.

I used that back when it was still Keyhole's software. Pretty cool. I orientated myself with the Las Vegas street plan prior to going there to prevent getting lost in a drunken state. It served me well.

I've been in the Colosseum in Rome. Now that's an amazing place. I'd love to go back in time and sit in a sell-out Colosseum watching navy battles or gladiators knock eachother out.

It's pretty god damn cool. They just need to hurry up on the Mac version (since they are working on it).

How do you do with google earth?

I'm still trying to figure out the blessings but haven't decided for how to use it in connection with my site.

Anyone some exiting ideas about?

oh my gosh, this is the most incedible thing I have ever seen. I run a travel business. I can speak to my clients about a place while I am looking at it. Or if they are lost I can tell them where to go! If I didnt know better I would say Google Earth is a gift from God...
