I love google earth! It's the coolest thing ever! I looked up old places I used to live. It's so neat to see it on there.

Its not real time, but still very cool. Too bad, my small town doesn't come in that clear. But I can see into my families driveway and see the cars parked there!

That would take NORAD to accomplish real time.....I'm sure the current inof is classified somewhere. I noticed that the maps of my place are about 2 years old...still cool though!
