That happened to my parents too. Only their picture is really cool because when the plane flew over my dad was sitting outside on their deck and waved at the plane. They got him smiling and waving! Not too many people have pictures like that!

Thats awesome!! I hope they bought it

Here in our county, the tax assessors use them to see if any improvements have been made to the homeowners property that they cant see from the road...for example; a shed or pond (to raise property taxes of course.) I think our last satellite update was about 2 years ago.

Can't see anything here. They always have cruddy pictures, all blurry where you can't make anything out.

The google earth picture of our place is fairly recent, sometime early this year as the new grass we put in still hadn't filled in but the playset and chicken coop are just as they are now. The bing picture is still an old one from when we first bought the house a few years ago.

Enter your address and when it pops up on a map hit the "Satellite" option at the upper right-ish area of the map, then zoom in.

Two funny things happened when I just did this:

1. I entered my address and when I went to zoom in, my browser crashed! THAT can't be good.

2. When I did pull it up, this is what I saw. I TOLD you guys I lived in the woods, lol. By the way, this is as zoomed in as it will go. I can't zoom all the way into my house. I think my area is too remote to bother with that ability!
