I love bird's eye views.
Google Earth is pretty sweet. I can see what my house looked like back in 1980 something. |

Luckily, my house is in fucking Mexico, MO and google hasn't made its way there yet. Can anyone find the pictures of the kid wrecking on the bike on google maps as the truck drove by?

I played around with google maps a lot when I first found out about it. It's fun to "drive" down the old streets back in Jersey every once in a while.

That's pretty cool. I've used Google Earth before but never clicked on street view. I've been touring all over the country this morning...places I've lived and places I've been on vacation.

It's really addictive. I keep calling my parents to ask them what their old addresses were...they remember more than I thought they would.

Yeah that ones a little weird and they are available online through the county treasurers office. At least if I want to see how big my trees have grown since I moved in, I can always do a quick compare.
