I was playing with it earlyer, and there was almost no detail when zommed in any closer than one city convering the screen - not enough to make out where my street is let alone my house or anything.
I remember nasa had a site which let you view anywhere, at a 1pixel/15meters which is a LOT higher res than on this.. which look like 1pixel/200meters or something.. They have probably limited it becuase they dont have infinite bandwidth

I want a go. Any idea when it might be back?
Seems to come and go. Was good for me about an hour or two ago.Originally Posted by ajbrun
OK - everyone post here when it's back up then.
Whoa! I just DL'd it. Try the route planner. Better than a crummy map anyday!
DFI LanParty UT NF4 SLI-D; AMD64 3500+ Winchester ;
2x XFX 6600GT ; Corsair XMS3200XLPRO TWINX 1GB;
Dell 2405FPW TFT.
I just got it, and can say it's good (better than that other 1), but you can't see any buildings in York.
Amazing bit of software. Check out the Suzuka circuit in Japan, close by there's a contrail and shadow streaking across the sky
Thats so you can't see the captured UFO's
Mmm... can't get my copy running. My uni network uses http cache, so I think thats the problem. Can't find anywhere to change the settings though
Doo Doo Doo Da Da DA...
Yup, I'm having a great laugh with this!
Check out: 52° 4'9.23"N, 1° 1'1.67"W and 51°26'1.76"N, 0°12'49.93"W too...

Found the reason why - you still need google's servers to authenticate, which they're not doing, so it's essentially useless downloading it from anywhere..

I've just downloaded and installed it on my home computer from zdnet this morning - worked fine for me.
ooh, looks like they've opened the servers up, as it wasn't doing anything last night
