Farkin Peeps




Google Earth. The new program from Google that allows you to circumnavigate the world at the click of your mouse. Basically if you have used Google's satellite map program along with any other map quest you get the gist of Google Earth minus the "hotness" that is Google Earth's "cool" factor.... I'm a huge "loser".

What makes this cool is the "virtual" way you can travel the globe, as if you took a plane from one destination to another, or were catapulted from your destination because your girlfriend got sick of you spending countless hours searching google earth. You can then zoom in on most areas up the point of seeing, in my case, my backyard basketball court. Once you've come into the area your searching you can then click on different options to locate certain places, like roads, hospitals, or the pub. These will appear on the screen with a little icon that will give you the address, phone, and website if applicable. It's a great way to plan a trip, or vast in awe of Mother Earth's great majesty...
