30 Oct 05 - 01:19 AM (#1593590) Subject: RE: Tech: Google earth From: Joe Offer Since I'm out in the wilderness, I don't rate high-definition photographs of my place. Both Virtualearth and Google Earth have rather fuzzy photos of this area. Still, I can make out more-or-less what's my home. It's the thing that doesn't look like trees. -Joe- |

Thanks for the links, Joe. SRS |

24 Apr 06 - 12:42 PM (#1726066) Subject: RE: Tech: Google earth From: Bill D well, it's an impression you get the first time you see it.....for maybe 20 seconds. Then that zooooooooom over the ocean makes you go WHOA! I just wish they'd hurry up and add more detail views...(sad that there are 'secure' areas they are not allowed to show close) |

24 Apr 06 - 04:01 PM (#1726248) Subject: RE: Tech: Google earth From: RangerSteve The pictures are not recent. Ny roommates bright blue Toyota has a dead transmission and hasn't been moved in at least three years, but doesn't show up on Google Earth, and the state park where I work doesn't show the new office, which was built about three years ago. A view of my childhood home shows that the trees that my father lovingly planted have all been removed. All those old country songs I've been singing about going home and finding the old home place has been drastically altered (Sweet Sunny South, What Have They Done to the Old Home Place, Rank Strangers, etc) have now taken on a whole new meaning for me. |

24 Apr 06 - 04:04 PM (#1726251) Subject: RE: Tech: Google earth From: Clinton Hammond "The pictures are not recent." Some dullard here not that long ago believed that when you hit GoogleEarth, you were actually interfacing with an orbiting satellite.... Being shown pics in real time... Except that the majority of pics on Google Earth are in fact from high altitude PLANES and NOT satellite photography.... |
