Default google has acquired keyhole

keyhole, now known as google earth is the best in infos abt the location around the world
http://earth.google.com/

you will get a globe like interface (you need internet conn: speed above 128kbps) and from that interface you can fly to any location in this earth
if you zoom in then you can actually see the streets and cars parked, really good software

Yepp that is true. Google is on the path smthing like microsoft but thier goals are bigger than MS, i have no doubt that in coming future we will see war against MS and google, which is on now, between msn search and Google.

Yes! Google Earth is very interesting!
I focused on my skool's area & could clearly see the building, the filed, the bus stop & things!
Its great but eats up a great bandwidth!!
