What do you mean "no luck?" I got a clear view of my street address and the surrounding area. Also, a close up view of my favorite restaurant. Are you on the moon?

Didn't work here, either. The map, okay. Zoom in to the max and nothing but a checkerboard of red Xs.

That is extremely neat!! I just spent a lot of time 'playing' with it and printed out the map.

I scrolled the map earlier up to Mt. Hood and Mt. St. Helens. Then searched New York and down to Florida. You may view your own home or your kids schools.

LOL!

They must've taken that picture when my lawn was dead-dry last summer!

Doesn't look like that now ;)

Some images are better than others. I was able to type in my old address in San Diego and zoom in to take a look around, but I couldn't zoom in on my current address.

These are old images. I saw the tree that I cut down four years ago in that picture.

And the pool wasn't "algae green" in the satellite image...



It was a special look I seemed to be able to recreate every ten days.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!

Is the resolution good enough to see nude sunbathers?
