If you have a cable connection and a solid PC I highly suggest downloading this.

You can zoom in right on Arco and then zoom across the country and zoom in on a friends house in seconds.

I figured some of you would enjoy that.

I looked at Candlestick Park and there is an actual game being played when the photo was taken.

It was pretty cool but I couldnt find my house or my old house in Indiana.

Not to mention if I am "BUSY" do I really want some SAT taking pictures of me!

Forgot the name of the site, but there was some crazy "find a person" site posted on here a few months abck with ALL of your current and former addresses, phone numbers, and zoom in/out pictures of your home/apartments from orbit. Vaguely creepy.

A bit frightening. Shortly after it became publicly known, I had someone show up on my doorstep that I never wanted to see again. And I couldn't think of any other way this person found my address. Later it was confirmed that was the way they found me.

LOL there is always U2's flying above us. I get kinda freaked out about it. Wonder if Google is behind this

i checked it out, and based on the photos of the area around my brother-in-law's house, it looks like these satellite pics are a couple of years old.

Some pics are from 3 years ago. I was looking in the sunrise/gold river/ pyrites area and the new housing isn't there yet.

Take a look at Arco Arena.
