UBB.threads Forums General Interest Computer Help & Idea Exchange Forum has anyone downloaded the GOOGLE EARTH program?

guys, this is amazing, first you could track down someone via google by typing in their phone number, and using mapquest, find directions to their home, NOW, type in the address, and get a look at their home........if you live in the sticks, it wont show your house, but small towns, and cities.......its amazing! if you do download, make sure you dont accept goggle as your search bar, unless you dont like the one you allready have.
its kinda fun, the detail when i searched for pearl harbor was so unbelievable it showed the oil leaking out of the ARIZONA....what will they think of next? (you can actually zoom in closer than this pic, but had to keep it small for posting!)

also, this is a WORLD WIDE map!

Zeppelin field in Nuremberg looks pretty cool from above.

Sweat Program.

That is neat and a good photo as well.

Have to try that out.

Thanks,

Kris

i forgot to add it gives, latitude, longitude, and eye altitude,(wtf is that?) look at lower right corner of pic i posted.
looking at that pic again is kinda strange, obviously the same veiw of dive bombers that day....... now trying to get the normandy beach pic if its there!
noone is safe from "big brother!"

A great program, it is just a shame that they dont have satellite pictures of everything. Heres a few more examples of what this program is capable of and how to spend 4 hours of your time when you should be xmas shopping

This first image just goes to show how BIG the Arizona really was in comparison to the island >>




Here is one of "Gold" and the D-DAY landings.



There'll be bluebirds ovvvveeerrrrr........



And finally one of a city closest to my location, satellites / tv / cars etc have not been invented here yet

Hello Everyone,heres a photo of the block of flats I live in,the last diagonal block on the right.I can even see my car in the carpark.A lot of the areas of the world are not as detailed as others,Regards nats

lol,
since were doing pics, here is the final resting place of the SULLIVANS...this is a great tour, along with the LITTLE ROCK, i cant remember the name of the sub, but she is a WW2
alumni...im sure you guys know about the SULLIVANS.......there was a history channel crew to investigate it being "haunted"
location, buffalo, new york.
i have been to this park at least 4-5 times, its a great park, and the tour you go at your own pace, no guides unless you want one, plenty of time to take pics, and just relax!
i have yet to visit sub, the last time i was there, it was across channel for repairs or something, i have missed the sub in my last three visits!

That program is indeed a great way to waste hours of time. Google has some amazing free software.

That program is really cool! Did you tell them dad about the outside smokers lounge at the last place you worked? now that is awesome!

How did ytou get around the 400 dollar tag on the program or did you download the free 7 day trial? My boss at work bought the program and it's cool, we had some time a flew around the world to a few cities here about two weeks ago.
