Title: Microsoft Virtual Earth
Post by: Sven on July 03, 2007, 07:10:04 PM

MS Virtual Earth is a map and satellite view of the world.
Between this app and Google Maps, it's amazing what you can see from your computer screen.

Here's a view of the road up to Mt. Evans that I rode a couple weeks back:

To install Virtual Earth, go to http://maps.live.com.  Be warned, the highest-detail views take a pretty good set of processor/memory.

This seems a lot better than Google. I actually could see my house on these maps. Pretty cool.
