Google Earth is getting sharper. Much sharper!

It’s been quite some time since I’ve last visited Google Earth. I didn’t really have a reason to since MapQuest seems to work as well for me as always. Google Earth was a great new thing for me when it first came out, but the immediate need to use and revisit it was just not there. Now I’ve been back to check it out, and I’m very impressed with how much sharper it has gotten. Just check out this image of Buckingham Palace.
Can you imagine what it will be like 2 years from now? :)

I can’t say anything near my neck of the woods has gotten any sharper, but I imageine they try and keep landmars and important buildings up to date.

That is very sharp. Maybe we’ll see people soon ;)
