    Default Google Earth

    I wonder if there is a way to import a stripper club list? Put in "Las Vegas" in the search field then "Paris, France" then your own address like "1289 Somewhere Road, Dallas, Texas". Click on the layers to the left. Use your mouse wheel to zoom in and out. Grab the screen like adobe and look around. .......amazing, just amazing.

    Download and install >GoogleEarth<

    edit: the clubs are already there.

    WiseGuy - I must say this is one of the most amazing things I have ever seen. Shit fuck damn amazing!!!!

    Have you turned on 3D buildings and flown around major cities? Or gone to some mountains and tilted the camera?!!?!? Wow is all I can say!!

    You can not imagine the excitement this has caused me. Excuse me while I clean my underwear.
    We all imagine ourselves the agents of our destiny, capable of determining our own fate. But have we truly any choice in when we rise, or when we fall, or does a force larger than ourselves bid us our direction. Is it evolution that takes us by the hand, does Science point our way, or is it God who intervenes keeping us safe.

    So much struggle for meaning, for purpose. And in the end, we find it only in each other. Our shared experience of the fantastic. And the mundane. The simple human need to find a kindred, to connect. And to know in our hearts... that we are not alone.

    LOL. To the bottom of the earth screen, you should see buttons with a + or a -

    Click on the + and hold it down to zoom

    Click on the earth and hold to drag it around and aim.



    Tilt the map with the corrospinding buttons on the other side

    Turn it with the arrow buttons

    Its similar but geared toward earth's natural sciences (such as seasonal fires in africa, fault lines, etc... plus it downloads big overlay files in order to run some of the views/animation) where as Google Earth seems to be more about human development (roads, resturants/bars, buildings, directions, etc... and ran immediately after install).

    Its not as good. GE zooms in to sattelite photos, you can make outr the individual buildings and trees. The other one is all about nature. It's cool until you zoom in, then you can make nothing out.
