Hehe.
My location is Burlington, Ontario, Canada. Whoever can post up a wider-view airphoto of my house first (proof of fining me) wins a DPC Gift Membership to do with as you please. I will simply email the membership code to the winner.
Cheers & Merry Xmas!

while not a big microsoft fan, check out //local.live.com/ and click on birds eye view... they have some crazy resolution (i can even spot my car) and you can switch the views around.
not available for all cities, but they do have ithaca, ny |

This reminds me of the time Kiwiness and me were a bit tipsy and started a Google Maps search for nuclear test sites in North-Korea. :)

Cool, thanks man. I might have to think a day about how to give it away. Probably another silly search at google maps based on some vague directions. :)
So those who are interested, keep an eye on the forums tomorrow. :)

Casa de Kudzu
stolen w/o permission from //maps.google.com which also requires no download and was much more recent than the microsoft live view...
from the looks, this photo was taken about 6 months before our house was finished... the house to the left was just about finished when we picked out our lot...
