Sat maps showing interesting things

At Google Sightseeing there are a collection of snaps from Google Maps of famous and strange things seen from overhead. Fun! Ends up that Google Maps is a lot more accessible than Microsoft’s Terraserver if only in user interface (quicker to enter addresses). TerraServer servers up much bigger images.

Note: Wired magazine has a related article: Surprises Lurk in Satellite Snaps
