this program is really amazing for being a free version (you can pay to get the better version). You can also tilt it, to look at land features as you would see them from the ground.

I got it a few weeks ago, but I live too rural to see my house. It kinda sucks, all I got is a bunch of blurry colored things where my house should be. If only I lived in the big city..

I don't get why it has detal on highly-populated areas and not on rural ones.
Shouldn't it be high-quality on everything or else crap-blurry on everything?

Yea I downloaded it not long ago, not too bad. Personally not a proggy I'd pay for :p

It's free though.... Isn't it?

Or is the program filled with spyware for ads like Kazaa?

definetly not filled with spyware.

That's just amazing :o I can see the closeup of my house! Now I see how satellites can track down criminals and how anything can be bombed to precision if need be.

Microsoft came up with one of those programs too... The funny thing is, Apple's Headquarters have been wiped off the map... Check the picture out here: http://edition.cnn.com/2005/TECH/internet/07/28/disappearing.apple.ap/index.html
