Yesterday and today I learned as much as possible about the manipulations of the Google Earth program. I know I sound kinda suaku when I call it "the Google Earth" program, but to tell you the truth, that's how I feel about it and that's how I'll refer to it. Yes yes, all of you people who would say that you've got it on your computers et cetera would most likely want to be all smug about it and say how cool you are for that. But you're not okay? I was on one of the early platforms of the program, and it didn't work so well and didn't prove to be much help to us here in Singapore. So I dumped it. Yeah, all of you with your so-called Google Earth installed on your comps, how often do you actually use it properly? Aha!

Anyway, I digress, as I am prone to here on my blog, but we've established that it is clearly and solely my prerogative. So deal with it.

I used Google Earth yesterday to pinpoint good positions in Singapore from which we might be able to get a good shot of the sun rising majestically over a new day, casting its life-giving light over apartments and condos. Today we used it to find a collection of buildings that were shown to us in a black and white low-res photograph.

Van travels round the world beside me in through Google Earth. She went to look up those fascinating Nazca Lines, Niagara Falls, and various other places of interest. I only like the keying in and flying around the world part, it's like being Superman.
