If you can figure out how to do it, post your favorite Google Earth bookmarks.

Still a work in progress. I can email bookmarks, but having trouble finding out how to post one.

Will figure it out soon. If not, this thread will TANK.

what freaks you out? the way the globe spins when you move in on target?


I been trying to figure a way to post a bookmark, but keep drawing a blank. I may just have to turn this into a google earth pic thread.

I hope not, I wanted a way to give coordinates, and people copy and paste them in, so they can look at neato places around the Globe.

what freaks me out is the fact that i can count the blueberry bushes in the yard. which means anyone else can count the blueberry bushes... and every other aspect of the property in detail.

Do you think anyone's that interested in your blueberry bushes, Eleanor?

I'll post a few points of interest soon (maybe tomorrow or Wednesday) in and around Taiwan

the sixth picture is my school, and the third picture... it should say "their prices are a little steep" or something. I kinda forget what my point was now.

The pyramids. Took me forever to find them. Kept searching around Cairo and looking around, and there they were.

Ayer's Rock / Ullaru... that big red rock thing... in Australia.

The thing's freakin' huge.

sweet....I seen a discovery channel deal on that rock. Looked awesome, I had a desktop wallpaper of it for a week or so.

I tried to find 'the Olgas,' with no luck. They're kinda like Ullaru, except there's 30 of them, and they're mostly taller!

try searching for Kata Tjuta, its their proper place name. (according to wikipedia anyway)

Ya, I just couldn't find them.

It doesn't really list all the World's attractions/sites, you know? I think it has like Nelson's Column, that big penis-looking structure in Washington, and that's it. They expect you to find the rest yourself somehow...

I agree, this creeps me out. You can see everything about our property! Not very private.
