Google-icious!

Ok, ready? This is really going to freak you out! You know that crazy technology that Google Maps uses to view satellite maps of Earth? You can actually see animals! It’s CRAZY! I was skeptical, but it works and it’s kinda scary how vivid the pictures can be. I found this when I was on strike last week, and I wanted so bad to break my strike and post it because it’s just that cool! You’ve GOT to check this out!

First, go to GOOGLE MAPS.
Then, copy the following co-ordinates of latitude and longitude, and paste them into the search bar. Then, click “search maps.” When it comes up, click satellite view, and then, without moving the location, just keep clicking the zoom button as it zooms in on the green arrow that marks the spot. This is crazy!

Does anyone know any others? What other cool stuff can you do with Google Maps?
