Birds Eye View
This image was obtained using the keyhole software, which google acquired lately.
Prediction: In a few months you will be able to enter an address into the google search bar and get a satellite image of the location. Satellite images of Indian territory will be off the air due to a certain government regulation that prohibits creating an exact map or satellite image upto a certain level of detail.
Update: True to my prediction, Satellite imagery was added to maps.google.com. http://www.betanews.com/article/Google_Adds_Satellite_Imagery_to_Maps/1112671379
Whats better is the ability to get directions entirely based off satellite images...Google never ceases to amaze.
