Some nice photos from google maps... and google Earth.

That's the capitol, I believe. I was just there a month ago with a bunch of friends and the surroundings look the same.

I wonder what the need for censorship is here?
I'm sure there is nothing interesting to see and these pictures wont be a threat to national security.

Yet we can go look at Area 51
Very odd.

I couldn't think of anything good for my blog until I got Google Earth. I'll be putting more up when I overcome my severe bout of laziness.

Oh yea, click on the image for the large version.

And for the star maps I use Starry Night.

You got some good looking pics on your blog

Google Earth is great I can't wait to see what it is like in a few years.

Live shots of the Earth?

Thanks.

I'm hoping they do full high resolution for the entire planet. Then the pictures will be fantastic.

Yeah, it seems anywhere that isn't in North America or has a population of more than a million has poor resolution.
I can look at my house nice enough but I will never get to see a crop circle.

Funny you should mention that. I spend hours going over all the high resolution spots in the U.K., and not one friggin crop circle.
