Hot.
I was surprised at first when I couldn't zoom down to see what that greyish blob was.
So I zoomed out and it was a beautiful interstate highway.
Wow.
How big is the download? It's not telling me and I don't wanna end up waiting when I don't know how long it's gonna take. =/
Wasn't this released a while ago? I remember playing around with it at school. There was also this problem where these circular, grayish blobs showed up in some maps and people thought that they were UFOs.
*spies on ShlupQuack*
*zooms in*
Oww... :(
28 degrees 15' 37.34" N, 81 degrees 16' 04.70 W is my house. The blue blur is a tent, and the white one is a boat.
How fast does it take to update? I'm tempted to go out and spell obscenities with sticks or something.
I downloaded it. Look up your favorite landmarks. I found the Great Pyramids pretty easily. I also looked at my favorite baseball stadiums. I think I found the Eiffel Tower, too.
EDIT: My house is 32 degrees, 39' 26.00" N, 97 degrees, 22' 06" W.
I think I can see my Dad.
I can see my house from here!
I've always wanted to say that.
I downloaded it and it only shows the towns of certain areas :/ I was trying to look where I am but it doesn't get any clearer, I try and zoom in and it's just ... blurred green :s it wont zoom in any further
I found EXACTLY where my house should be. And, it doesn't even exist. xD
The street name isn't the same either, but it is a fairly new housing estate. But, I'm pretty sure that's where my house should be. xD
Blah! :D
o_O Why did Maxico keep finding non-existant places in Malaysia?!?!?! o_O I felt a speck of doubt in my heart of this 'wonderful' thing.

It's neat, though I do wish you could zoom in a tad more and that it wasn't more or less depending on where you live. I can't see anything where I live, but where my transfer school is I can see everything...it's awesome. :love:
*has KB's floorplans AND coordinates (or whatever)*
Beta closed ;(
It doesn't zoom in very far on my town. I can recognize it as my town but I can't like zoom in on my yard or anything.
I might play around with it some more later.
I would download it...but what's it really good for?
:D

I think its down right now, cause i keep going to it, and it tells me its down.
Damn I wish it was up.
