Google Earth Tips

Google Earth is nice, but it's coolness wanes quickly. Luckily there are thousands of more dedicated people than you who have scoured the planet in search of its secrets and albeit, there are websites as well?!!

Google Earth Hacks is a great site with RSS Feeds which keep you up to date on the newest and coolest hacks. The hacks are user contributed files which extend Google Earth. Such as adding more detail to the Nazca Lines of Peru.

It has user feedback so you are not downloading complete crap.

Another cool site that I found while Digging featured the Top 10 Naked People on Google Earth, Google Sightseeing's motto is "Why Bother Seeing the World For Real?" Why bother, when this site features all that you could ever discover. In Google Earth that is.



While there is no substitute for uncovering things yourself, there is something to be said about these crib notes. They will save you time by highlighting interesting areas and also whet your appetite for future Where's Waldo-esque scouring of Google Earth.
