Anyone seen the 'Google Earth' software? It's quiet amazing and another brilliant bit of free software from the great Search Engine experts (couldn't spell s-p-e-c-i-l-i-s-t 
)
Just type-in "Google Earth", and download.
Won't tell you about it here, just download & try it:xmassign:

It has taken about 4,500,000,000 (4.5 billion) years for the Earth to form as it is now .........
and it'll only take about another 100 years for mankind to really **** it up!!!!

Hi
Sounds like a great site but says only works if you R on broadband. Unlucky for some. I'll keep it in mind when I eventually upgrade.

My old school seems to have lot of construction work though and it was a pretty garden the whole time I was there, so the pics are pretty old (also Leeds City Square looks like a building site).0 -

It'll work if you're not, just be slooooow. It has to download all the pictures as you go along, not tried it on dialup but I imagine it'll be quite painful waiting!0 -
Hi folks,
I love google earth though I don't use it often. Anyone know of a uk based google earth site i.e. forums and user groups as I am thinking of playing around with the .kzm files though I don't have a clue how to get them working!!!!!
Any tips on using uk based .kzm files are very welcome!!!
Yours truely, my fellow earth citizens
