What have the Statue of Liberty in New York, the Parthenon in Athens and the Eiffel Tower in Paris in common ? The answer is, they all can be seen in excellent quality on google maps.

I found a site that lists some of the world famous buildings and sites with a direct link to google maps for your viewing pleasure. Take a look around, visit the Sistine Chapel in Vatican City and the Washington Monument in Washington DC.

Could not believe it when I first heard about it. Someone ported the board game Risk to Google maps. When you start the game you see a worldmap and some lines drawn that are the borders. They look exactly like the risk game layout.

Weatherbonk lets you view realtime weather information about a town you specify. Its not only working for the USA but the whole word. Its working pretty straightforward and fast, you enter the name and location of your town (San Francisco CA, or Berlin, Germany) and the map loads the location showing every town it has weather information of with a green dot.
