My house doesnt show up yet, its too new. I think they purposely delay the pictures a year or two in the interests of military security.

Yup, it is way cool.

Do this:

1. Center the map on 19deg,00'10"N and 12deg53'27"E (roughly in the middle of the Sahara -- but you've got to be accurate with the co-ords I've given)
2. Zoom in A LOT
3. Tell me a) what the hell those people are doing there are b) why the hell that area is in such high resolution

I love how I can look at places that you'd be shot for entering on foot (e.g. Iranian nuke plants, Pyongyang, Air Force bases, etc.)

Can anyone find the BMW factory?
