apparently those of us up in Canada arn't interesting enough to photograph from space. If any of you know something like terraserver for canada, please tell.

I've found my house, place of employment, school, just about everything important in my small town. There was someone else's car in my driveway.  ------------------

How about people paste the links to the photos, or if that doesn't work, at least trim them down. If everybody posts huge images like that, the thread will take MUCH longer to load.------------------

 lets all use the< terraserver > to take screenshots of our houses and post them here. this is a picture of upper east alameda california usa. my house is outlined in red my backyard in green and my room in blue. at the farthest zoom in a pixel equals about 3 feet
(the print screen button saves a screen shot into your clipboard then you can paste it into your preffered photo-editor)

Nuke em' till they glow and shoot em’ in the dark and let the computer sort em' out.
Then wait for a mutation…
