Time to Google Earth

Google has released a really cool new program that uses global satellite mapping technology to spice up finding directions. Of course, you don't need to find directions in order to enjoy it. Use it to start out in space and fly down onto a satellite photo of the Eiffel Tower or Big Ben or the Washington Monument. I spent some time zooming in on all the old houses I've lived in including where I live now.

Finding directions has never been cooler as the software uses these global images to map out your route, overlaying every leg of the trip with turn-by-turn directions. Need a bite to eat on the way? No prob. Overlay any number of options including places to eat, sleep, sip coffee, and more. This is definitely worth checking out. Download the program here at Google's main web page.
