Hi, very good idea :)
I'm just wondering if it's possible to see the nick names on world's map. Right now I see only dots and don't know where are people from
Sure, just click on the Giant Earth link.

Ok I'll bite.
I live in the wonderful town of Pulderbos (near Antwerp (Belgium)).
Google Earth returned something like this:
edit: hmmm..ok, didn't see that map feature on GG&Jim before, cool stuff :)

That's pretty slick, just added myself...although it seems to be a bit crowded in the Northeastern US. Maybe we need ultra-mambo-giant earth :D

I'm feeling a little crowded, but at least I'm not covered (yet).
I see that Simon and a few others are under FoxyAngel
Damn it's almost getting dark over here :(
It seems there are high concentrations of webmasters at some places, I think I'm moving to Africa...

Yepz, that's what I'm using. Detailed satelite pics like that only work for (parts) of the US so far but I managed to take a peek in the backyards of UW, greenie, surfn, cleo, Torn, ramster ... and so on :D

If you take a peek at my back yard dont zoom in to much. I live next to a Frankenstein project went wrong. You just might see an over grown retard trying to look back up at you. She can hear the signals in the sky. Don't be scared, she will stare at you for 5 minutes before she tries to run for you.

I dont think you can Linda. All I see is a .jpg and I dont think its like some kind of dynamic page or something that you can zoom in to. But something will need to change or this is just going to be a giant red ball lol.

Tommy I found it lat 37.2366339569 -115.800340334
pretty cool for a complex that doesnt exist:)
the runway is 6 miles long and can land 2 shuttles simulationously at each end without parachutes and still have a mile between them :D
yet we keep using the space junk to send humans into space.
Greenguy's in Greenland. :D
and Gabbo's currently in Hawaii. :)
and UW must have unloaded the house (or unloaded on his neighbors) 'cause he's moved to south Africa.

Maybe downloading the jpeg file and zooming it more in photoshop helps?

I have abandoned my palacial estate in Cape Town and am now on safari. I think I will gradually make my way to North Africa.
Who knew that world travel could be so easy and cost effective?

just think, if they could link up the coordiantes to the closest city, you could edit the photo of the city and send us a post card with you being there.... you could arrange a whole trip that way and never leave home.
