This is really cool! You have to download it, and it takes a couple minutes to figure out how to navigate once in the site, but worth the effort.

there's toolbars you can use to help you figure out how to get around ...

Yeah, wonderful stuff, and it's getting better too. I downloaded Google earth a few days ago, and I've been exploring Google maps for a couple of weeks now.

Fabulous time-wasters for an ol' retired guy...

Really a cool site. Google made navigating world much easier.
Wanna tell you about another cool site that is my internet finding .It’s a web research software Keepoint and I love it. Browsing without Keepoint is too tough for me.

Yeah I used this last fall to zoom in on Kabul Afghanistan and mark locations of interest to show my friends. Nothing like zooming in with GoogleEarth on the Holy-****-Circle in Kabul and seeing the gridlock from the air instead of being caught in it
