Google Earth

Is there another program, similar to web-search Earth, but which doesn't need
to be downloaded on to my computer, please?

JoeH...

It uses (mostly) the same maps as goole earth.

Thanks Joe - just what I wanted :-)

pmj...

& also, they've now added...

:-)

BTW - micro$oft also have something similar to the web-search Maps Site,
called M$N VirtualEarth (now known as windoze Live Local)

& there's a really clever WebSite been Set up, that uses the
web-search Maps Satellite Images & Map Info, (which, as you say is
broadly similar to the Images used in the web-search Earth Application),
but does it all directly in the Web Browser, Running as a ShockWave
Flash thingy.

It Zooms in & out & Pans across, just like the web-search Earth
Application & it also has the Facility to show the M$N VirtualEarth
Images as well.
