World Wind
I've been having fun recently playing with NASA's World Wind program. It uses satellite and space shuttle topography data (as well as some much higher resolution data from the USGS) to produce an incredibly detailed three dimensional model of the world.
Of course I took some screen shots. I added the highlighting, but the labels on the buildings (which you can't read in these small images) are really present in the program. Click them to pull up larger images.

Not as scary when you realize those pictures are several years old. or at least the one of mom & dad's house is. There is now an elementary school where the second baseball field is on the picture, actually it's been there for about 4 yeras now.
Got a job offer, might stay on the east coast indefinitely. How's your summer going?
