Google Moon
Perhaps I'm turning into a themed blog (Google) but another cool idea - Google Moon in honour of the moon landing 36 years ago. What I remember about the moon landing was that it was a VERY big deal at the time but much bigger in hindsight. Don't forget to zoom all the way in!

Fly the Earth - More Google Stuff
Google recently released the free Google Earth (beta) program. A 3-D interface for the planet. If you thought (like I did) that Google Satellite maps was cool this beats it by a mile. "Fly" from one place to another, tilt the earth, rotate around sites - if you love looking down on earth from an airplane you'll enjoy the sights from Google Earth. You'll need to download and install on your computer (sorry no Mac version yet) but it's easy to navigate from one place to another.
Take a sightseeing tour. Then do the download.
