Its a mad program made by google, you can zoom in on anything all over the world. And since it was created by americans USA has even got street names and shops (you will know wat i mean when you use it). earth.google.com/Click on download Its pritty fun. After you install it you can see where i live if you want type in "parramatta,australia" in the search box on the left side and it will move roughly to where i am you might have to zoom in though. Well wat do you think?

Yeah I've had Google Earth for some time now already and it's just freaking mad. I once found a cool site which had like coordinates to cool places so you can check them out with your google earth. Google is making more and more areas available for zooming in, so its just getting cooler and cooler.

It's really old, not only the program, but the pics the satelites use. I googled where I live and some buildings that are suppose to be are not, just empty spaces of dirt.

They only do the CBD of each capital city in australia which sucks! Hopefully they update the images.

The number needs to be listed. My and a few friends tried it, and we went through about ten home numbers till we got one that worked.
