No freaking way man!!

This is perhaps the single freakiest most fun thing I've seen on the net for ages. Goto Google Earth and download the program, its about 10megs so be patient and then run it. Then you can search for anywhere in the world and zoom in on the area of interest. Some of the photos are only low res but some are amazingly high quality and you can see people and cars and all kinds of things. This site is just amazing and I recommend you try it. You will need broadband and a relatively fast computer for it to work but its freakin amazing when it does.
