Im sure you've all got o heard of Google Earth, but I just thought it would be cool to post aerial pictures of our homes.
Heres mine:
My room is the North East corner of the house. These picture must have been taken several years ago, as we now have a small log cabin in the back garden for my nephews and nieces to play in.
The next pic shows the YMCA hotel (no jokes please) which I stayed in while working in Hong Kong for a couple of summers.
Ok if you can find a hi-res pic of your house/flat/tent or whatever in Google Earth then please post it.  |

Google Earth is black and white for me... Or did they come out with a newer version than the one from Summer '05? |

I tried taking a picture of my flat, but the image isn't clear.
This is as far as I can go:
Digital Globe hasn't been in Romania lately.In fact I haven't seen any clear image of my country, neither in our capital. |

Holy crap SKA! I didn't realise you could even get in that close? Wouldn't this be getting dangerously close to an invasion of privacy?
Nice roof tiles btw  |

Mine is like Filip Alex.... if I lived about half a mile west I'd have a perfect picture like SKA's but I'm in a 'fuzzy can barely make out the roads' zone. |

You know billejoe, Google, by itself, works WONDERS when you're confused about something.
When I was using the computers in the college lab, I used it and I was pretty upset to find that it wasn't a current picture of my house. There has been a considerable amount of work done to the house in the past year and I'd want to show how great it looks but I can't. |
I TOLD YOU I'D SHOOT!
BUT YOU DIDN'T BELIEVE ME!
WHY DIDN'T YOU BELIEVE ME?! |

I love the way the satellite illustrates the excellent job bexley council did of resurfacing our road. Almost looks like the worlds largest zebra crossing. Bleeding Muppets.
the big arrow is my house, the little arrow points to my car, that sadly, is no longer with us... bless its little 987cc heart!  |

For all intents and purposes I'm gonna use my dorm in Providence, Rhode Island as my home. The red arrows all point to (roughly) where my dorm is...
