Jet pilot

Okay, probably everyone in the world knows this but me, but Google Earth has a built in flight simulator.


I flew a falcon over Heathrow. How cool is that?

Better - the NYT had an article yesterday, about how Google Earth is adding a map of the oceans, and a function allowing you to see how communities and geography changed over several years. Cool!

Yeah, I saw that and completely whiffed on downloading ver 5.0 last night. I gather they only have a small fraction of ocean floor imagery - but hell, I'll take what I can get.

Gonna be a strange world when Google finally becomes self-aware and takes over.
