yeah google earth has been out for a while now acutaly. they have quite a few version and the premium version d oes offer many nice features. like saving images in up to 4800x4800, making videos and more.

also there is a web based version of it that works just like most maps on sites that tell you where to drive and how. by that i mean. scaling and pressing arrows to go moure south east noth or west. smile.gif

I think this is a very good software...not only it allows people to have a look at their locations but it has its pros and cons as well.

Here is the advantage which i think it has :

It can be incorporated in Cars and it will allow people to reach to most destinations without any problems...I know I know that most of you will say that this system is already there in most of the cars and infact they are much better than this but look at the brighter side of it...this is free and soon we'll be having computers in low budget cars also and their it will come handy for those people who can't afford expensive cars

It will help defence of the countries in lot of their missions.

Now, here's the disadvantage of google earth and similar technologies..that they will allow culprits to get any location they want in this world...again you will say that those people will already be having the same..or infact better technology but yet again...it will also help those culprits who are not at bigger level (i think you got my point..to whom i am pointing out here) and may be those small culprits will become bigger culprits.

Well everyone of us knows that the technology brings both advantages and disadvantages it depends on us...that how we make use of it smile.gif

I cannot get google earth to work anymore. I am on dial-up-is there a problem with that-it used to work fine a couple of weeks ago.

The only problem I had is that it would not zoom very close to ground level. I keep getting a low resolution problem. I have not changed a thing since I last used it.

The display is very large and pixelated-please let me know if you can fix this-I really liked the program-Joe
