holy shit. if u go to the new york area u can clearly see peoples houses :eek:
what they need to do is have the ability to link people to what u see... man there are some huge houses on the west coat (california) on the beach
edit: well this officially confirms my suspicions that the US government/microsoft/google can now see everything |

Wow.
Simply one of the coolest things I've seen on the net so far.
Too bad it can't zoom into Edmonton like in the states, but very very cool.
I zoomed into the strip at Las Vegas, can see all the big casinos (including the pyramid!). |

| I found Area 51. :bthumbup: Type in "roswell, new mexico" zoom to 10 then scroll down a little and then you can see an air base in the brown area then down a little more into the green area the is a triangle, another air base but you can't zoom close and its in the middle of nowhere.:confused: |

Awesome. I can see my parent's farm from here. :eek: And that's rural Nova Scotia.
I've put some details on the map. See that lake? No one EVER goes there. It has two private access roads owned by us, and the neighbours (Archibalds). They have a cabin out there, but I've yet to see anyone use it. I used to camp out on that island all the time. It's my island. ;) Brock Island.
Damn, like I wasn't anxious enough.

Those are agricultural areas that have irrigation.... not enough water for things to grow except where the irrigation systems spray water...... usually they are circular...... |

You can zoom in on Calgary way more than edmonton. |

The following two are Area 51, and the Pentagon. Cool, eh?
 |
|
|
| notaturbotalon |
| I wonder how many CIA agents they have watching your computer now that you've searched for that picture of the pentagon. |
|
|
| inglewood |
| actually the cool thing is, you can see the wing of the pentagon that was struck during the attack during 9/11. the center section of the left side of the ring shows new construction. pretty cool, eh? well not cool that it happened, but that you can see that level of detail from over 35000 km up. |

| This isn't updated very often, I tried searching for Ft Saskatchewan (where I live), they don't even have our new Multi-use facility on the South side of hwy 21. It was finished last October, but Construction started over 1 year ago. |

This images are not very current. I took a look at the Calgary Airport and the image is from last year when they were still working on the new D wing.
Still pretty cool |
