Google Maps!

[princesscc]

Has anyone else looked at the new maps page on Google? It's fab! You can zoom right in on a satellite and see your house! Me & dd have been all over the world visiting various relatives and checking out who has swimming pools and trampolines in their garden!

It's been aroudn for a while now. No swimming pool or trampoline in ours, but we can see our whirly line patio.

mine won't zoom in that small

dh has used this a lot (it's been around quite a long time), but yesterday he used it to outline the route we'd walked to see how far we'd gone - that was cool!

i've got google earth. is this linked to google maps, i don't understand! when i search for google maps, it just comes up with regular street maps. how do i get the images you describe?

Google Earth seems to be a bit disconnected from Google Maps.

DS loves it.
A lot.

Think you need to change the view from maps to satellite. It's on the top right hand side of the screen.

Oh are they diff? It's google earth that dh uses normally.
