The Google Earth game! **BEWARE 56K**

[tokosan]

Ok so here's a new forum game, as I see that the only one is "word association", one of the most boring and unimaginative forums games out there.... here's how it goes.... BTW not for lazy asses.

First, you must download google earth.... http://earth.google.com/

Now, I will start with this picture of where I live right now (you can see my car hehe :D), followed by a geographical location or landmark, which the next person must find & post a picture of, and so on.

Just installed google earth when I found this thread so here's a pic of the millennium dome in Greenwich, proof that great architecture is rarely found in the middle of industrial estates.

[tokosan]

there's the red square in Moscow... with that big cathedral I forgot what it's called....

[tokosan]

wow, i just found this... it seems to be some kind of strange symbol, or maybe an alien landing pad..... it's in southern Nevada in the middle of the desert.

the other one is some warships at dock

[st0n3r]

its area-51 in invisi-mode

[tokosan]

this is an extremely massive aircraft graveyard.... its actually too big for me to fit in one picture.... damn google earth is so cool! C'mon people!

[tokosan]

this is really cool -- it's a shipwreck from colonial times off a small island in new zealand...

[tokosan]

Here's the Yellowstone lodge-- the best hotel I have ever stayed in.

[GHoSToKeR]

tokosan, you didn't find all those yourself, man! You went on to the Google Earth forum, I forget what's it's called, but I know you did coz i've seen those exact same places coz people on that forum found 'em. :) I had to uninstall Google Earth, i'll reinstall it now, thanks for reminding me.

[Mirno Sctlnd]

How do you attach pictures?

[GHoSToKeR]

To what?

[colton]

Yeah the same symbol in japan i think means friends, love, unity. not sure if its japan might be china, but still millions of people don't know that

its true alot of people dont realise that the swastika has been around thousands of years, i know its sacred to Hindus and buddhists aswell i think!

heres the hindu one -

[kontrol87]

something about google earth troubles me....many of the places that you see like airfields and warships are no fly zones.....you are not even alowed to take a picture of them....so why is it alowed in google earth?...not that i care much...jus curious....

Also...isnt google earth a great tool for terrorists?

[GHoSToKeR]

LOL

I think most (i'm only guessing) of the photos are taken by satellite. And why would it be good for terrorists? All of these images are publicly available anyway, I believe.

[kontrol87]

I really doubt a picture of US warships are publicly available...i know this because when I drove to San Diego, CA i saw the huge warships on the docks and im like holy fuck i gotta take a picture of that shit...so i went up to the gate and shit and this fucking army guy told me i cant take pictures...Also in holland....they have signs next to the military bases that says you are not allowed to take pictures within the boundaries.

Well the way terrorists can use it is by using it for plans? I dont know about you guys but i dont want fukn osama putting in any address in the world and being able to see a detailed view like that...

basically...think of Pearl Harbor....

[Melton420]

yea bad ass

[Melton420]

heres the place i live

[kontrol87]

anyway...check out my favorite coffeeshop on Amsterdam...
