Wow!

One of the coolest things I think I have personally experienced on the computer up to this point.  I can't believe it is free, because it must have taken a while to build and input all the data.  Thanks!

Agreed with Khayman - this is easily the coolest thing I've seen yet online

And I thought the net was for porno, hockeystats and flamewars! Silly me!

Thanks for sharing it here Hexa

My kids love it too - which is an extra plus - never could sit down and look at porno with them, so now we finally have something we can do together

*runs off to go look at more*

Real time footage would be more something they would use in teh series "Alias" (for those that haven;t see the series yet.. it's a series about spies (CIA, KGB you name it) in which they use all kinds of cool toys .. like real time satelite coverage)!@

Back on topic ,, still waiting for the first cool pic to be posted from Google Earth.

Wow, that program is awesome!

Obviously not finished in some areas, but where it is is really amazing.

I feel that there's a lot of things on it which I don't know how to use, though.

I found my house in Hong Kong

What a novel idea. I'd download it if I didn't have such a bad computer.

All in all, Google is getting more fascinating and scary all the time.
