Is it just me or is there something vaguely worrying about a tool like Google Earth?

keegan, these satellite shots have been around and on the web for everyone for more than 10 years, except the website was called something else. i remember locating my house in berkeley, so that was early '90s. when i found my house in miami, i did see someone sunbathing on a nearby rooftop . . . could be scary, but certainly not new.
