  • NC: Charlotte, Winston-Salem
  • SC: Columbia, Greenville

  • MO: St. Louis
  • KS: Topeka
  • NE: Lincoln
  • OK: Oklahoma City, Tulsa
  • NV: Reno
  • CA: Bakersfield, Fresno, Sacramento, Stockton

The best part for me is they added several Ohio cities, including Columbus and its suburbs.

And as an added bonus they got a photo of my Dad’s ass…. just in time for Father’s Day. I don’t think their face blurring technology will fix that. He’s not going to be pleased when I show him.

The coverage of Ohio is impressive.

If you haven’t familarized yourself with Google Earth recently, it’s time to get reaquainted.


Also, the picture to the left contains all actual data. The clouds and sunlight were in realtime when viewing. How is that not cool?

It allows you to record sketches in real time and then show them off. You can embed them as well. It’s easier to draw with a graphics pad rather than a mouse.

They have it install on the computers here at my workplace. A group of people have started a website dedicated to upgrading peoples browsers so that compatibility is easier to achieve.

From Techcrunch:

“Which is why a group of them have created SaveTheDevelopers.org, an organization dedicated to making the Web a better place for developers (and thus for users as well). Web developers can grab a piece of code to put on their Websites which will detect if a visitor is using an outmoded browser (IE6, cough). When the offending browser is detected, a pop-down window will appear (assuming those aren’t blocked) which will direct the user to a page where they can upgrade to IE7, or the latest version of Firefox or Safari.”

Spread the message. I’ve just installed this website with the script. By the way this website looks like crap when viewed in IE6 anyway.
