Until now, if you were interested to see satellite images via Earth Google, you had to down load big program call GoogleEarth. And it will only run on newer computers.

But not anymore......

This web site will do it for you regardless of PC system (and no downloads), and you can switch between labeled streets map and satellite map simultaneously.

I was able to locate my car at my job.

It doesn't seem to be working for me, I wonder if it has to do with using Safari???

however, roads are not indicated, and I can't zoom in on my house, in tiny belgium, whereas in Google earth I can :)

I see that there are several map options. In case of my local area nowadays, I get best results wtih Yahoo! Maps; where I used live in Toronto, the best is Microsoft VE (labels). With you latter you get street names.
