[AT] Want to see all your ATIS friends' abodes from the sky--in color!?

Be aware that Google Earth is just a fancy new interface to the same image 
database used by Google Maps

http://maps.google.com/

Google Maps might be a lighter weight way to access the satellite data than 
Google Earth.
Still takes quite a bit of bandwidth, but might be workable on a slower line.

BTW, my place is just a fuzzy blob, you can't see the tractors, and I'm OK 
with that.
