New version of Google Earth

[SiberianDVM]

The new free version of Google Earth has an amazing feature: an eye level view. You click on the little camera icons and there is a crystal clear picture of the street level that you can rotate and zoom. I only got a chance to play with it a few minutes last evening on my home computer, but I was wowed. Check it out.

My GE has a feature like this, but it isn't anywhere near that crisp or accurate. That's impressive as hell. I will be updating when I get home

Amen to that!

I keep a map of Wisconsin in the trunk of my bike(just in case i get lost....which i usually find myself a lot further from home than i should be) and i don't think its ever been folded up properly...not that it matters really...
