Google Goodies

Ever wonder what your house looks like from space? How about the City of San Francisco? There’s a new Google Toy which covers, near as I can tell, every part of planet Earth...

For the US, Canada, and England, it will give data on such things as coffee shops, movie rentals, and gas stations. In the US, it will give Zip Codes, and even congressional districts!

It’s a 10 meg download, and requires a decent Internet connection (data is streamed in rather than cached locally) they recommend a fairly modern computer (say newer than 2 years). It’s not available for Mac or Linux...
