Default A Pretty Fun "World Viewer"

1. go to http://earth.google.com/download-earth.html
2. click this link-

3. install
4. Have fun viewing the world, etc. Here are some pics of how accurate, interesting, and usually updated it is.



NAVIGATING:

Go to the top-right and type in where you want to go. This can be anything from a street address to a city to a famous building to a county to a monument. Anything you can think of that is significant.

Next, click the magnifying glass.

It should take you right to where you want to go, unless there is a duplicate.
i.e. - Paris will take you to Paris, France instead of Paris, Texas.

Thanks for reading! rate out of 10! +rep appreciated!

Why does have to MSN? Too secreto for the forums? If you don't want people to find out about something, post it at RSF.
