Tour the world with Google!
Tonight I ran into a cool little site. It may not be new to you, but it is to me... It's the Sightseeing with Google Satellite Maps. You can check it out here.
With it you can see places like Area 51, Bill Gate's House, The Great Wall of China and the Hollywood Sign. Pretty good fun!

Glad you liked it Ms. Ellie.
You know what I thought would be a cool (and nerdy) website... Have people submit geographic anomalies they find with Google Earth and have people CLOSE to it take pictures and submit them to solve the mystery.
If you look around the maps enough you'll see some stuff that will make you say "Hrm... I wonder what that is." Wouldn't it be cool to actually FIND OUT?
wow, you were up late thinking up such things! if i get myself organized or on a summer routine (teachers don't like to have routine during this time of year!) but i will visit and perhaps post something here and there...
hot in texas?
Well my idea exists... FIRST of all I say, if you like the link I posted you will LOVE GOOGLE EARTH! Download it NOW!
Look in the lower lefthand corner for "Layers" and enable "Keyhole Community BBS". People help each other figure out the mystery spots. VERY COOL!
well, because i am on a mac, i don't know...
ummm, it won't work......wanna be a mac geek and research this for me? lol
