Google Maps uses AJAX, not Java. It shouldn't matter what JVM you have.

Ummmmhhhh.... Why? 😕

Canberra only exists as a place that we send our Federal politicians to.

There are far better places to look at in Oz, eg. my New House ! Moving in this weekend! 😀

Anyone find the Colloseum? Not sure exactly where it is to look for it.

EDIT: Is this it?

I work at the general electric plant in schnectady new york, where we design and manufacture high pressure steam turbines. What's funny is that if you try to look up the address -->

http://maps.google.com/maps?q=utrecht&l...08605&sspn=0.007532,0.008605&t=k&hl=en

The surrounding area is quite clear, while the area of the plant is not near as high quality. Perhaps this has something to do with how employees aren't allowed to bring notebooks or cameras on site, and maybe theres more than just turbines being built here...

ok, understand now.
I hope that they were not affected too much by the bushfires there two years ago... I was in my home town near the snowy mountains during the fires. My Family had not seen the sun for around three weeks due to the smoke.

Whoa... that doesn't even look like a satellite image. It looks like a city I built in SimCity.

I was thinking the same thing. That is really laid out well.

I know! I was looking for Cedar Point the other day for the guess that picture thread, but it didn't have the high res... such crap. That'd make for such an awesome aerial shot but since Sandusky isn't Los Angeles or New York it's not available 🙁.

Best I could find.
