see the world

I will never leave my house again. Google Earth flight simulator with buildings is the coolest thing ever. It's amazing hopping from city to city, flying through downtown. (Use ctrl+left/right to check out the side view.) It's also fantastic checking out the pictures. When Microsoft Photosynth and other promising automatic photo analysis algorithms enter the equation, I'll see little reason to leave the country at all.

It's also given me tremendous respect for stunt pilots.
