Acerz492 1 Posted September 9, 2005 :lol: As with all things american, it only shows america. How sad, i wanted to see my own house in NZ, and my computer simply isn't powerful (combined with a 56k connection) to run Google Earth smoothly, even though I have it. Oh...now I can say, with full confidence: 'Tree, I know where you live...' :wink: Share this post Link to post
Luk3us 63 Posted September 9, 2005 I've used that before.. Not recommeneded for 56k though, like Acerz said.. Its pretty cool actually. Shame you can't get it in real time Share this post Link to post

TheBlackOut 7 Posted September 9, 2005 The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. NW Washington, DC 20500. Okay, so if I go down this street right here I can sneak in without, oh hi! I didn't see you there.... you see none of this text, GO AWAY! Share this post Link to post
Guest Rabbit Posted September 9, 2005 I must say, I've seen worse, and better images... This one is one of the better ones... lol Share this post Link to post
Acerz492 1 Posted September 9, 2005 :lol: Only thing I can complain about is the fact that you can't view the map in 'Map' mode - where it shows all the streets etc. It only shows the satellite version of Auckland. Share this post Link to post

Guest MadBadger Posted September 9, 2005 as for area 51 yo can see it but if you try and zoom in it just says 'image unavalible' :shock: and yall know the addresses entered into google will be the first places the bombs will fall when Google attempts global domination (only to be thwarted when Windows crashes on them :lol: ) heres my house i use Multi map instead Click here -Message from Admin - URL too long, shortened to retain forum layout. teeheehee its got the circle in the wrong place YOU WILL NEVER KNOW (exactly) WHERE I AM Share this post Link to post

Luk3us 63 Posted September 10, 2005 only to be thwarted when Windows crashes on them Laughing ) That is why they're developing their own OS. Share this post Link to post
Guest MadBadger Posted September 10, 2005 hrmmm but will it end up like MAC? Googles OS will HAVE to get game developers full acceptance or it wont take off big time. Share this post Link to post
Luk3us 63 Posted September 10, 2005 lol... I some how doubt Google will be considering gamers... If its a good enough OS then gaming developers will HAVE to move to that platform instead. Share this post Link to post
