    Nice Hemantgiri, but with Earth you can see my house, town, how far I'm from river, etc.

    Try with my coordenates and will see what I'm talking about.

    can you stand outside and wave at us?[8D]

    i think this map is probably 2-3 years old, or atleast at the coordinates below
    30 23'17.64"N, 97 52'47.17"W

    i see the power lines outside my window, but there is absolutely no building yet

    I don't want to download and install the Google software, so I've added myself to Hemantgiri's map.

    Well, it's just another app I use only on rare occasions and I'm not free to install software on the computer I use to surf the web anyway. It's a company laptop.
