Hmm. I don't recall any requirement for a login.  Are you clicking the
"Get Google Earth Free Version" button on the RHS of the screen? Or
are you trying to get a posh, paid for version?

Right. I've cracked. What's Google Earth?

M'Lud, Google Earth is a Terribly Clever Thing

Toodles tells me that I can search in minute detail the Forbidden City in Beijing.


We can probably pinpoint when the photo over our house was taken by looking for the nearby back garden/brown field site houses. And its definitely in the last 4 years because we can see Hazel's very own Clio (now late Clio) in our drive. How Terribly Clever is that!

Toodles also said that when he went to look at Yeovil there was far less detail, and also that some 'squares' had far less detail due to weather conditions.
