For those of you who haven't tried this yet, you are in for a real treat. 
Go to googleearth.com and download the program. It's free.
Type in your street address and see close up aerial photographs of your house.

that's cool but a little scary to see just how much big brother can see. Goodbye privacy.

I've been using googgle earth for a while. I'm in a low resolution area so I just get blurry green blotches for my house.

wonder how many of those weirdos with the tin foil hats are now covering their houses in the stuff to avoid those cameras....
...and if big brother is really watching, he will appreciate me mooning him.

I've been using google Earth for awhile too...an MD friend introduced me to it. It's pretty darn neat! I'd be more concerned about privacy if all of the pictures were LIVE feeds!!

yup me too, even big brother is keeping the beauty here a secret.
the aluminum roof on the porch is keeping those prying eyes off my naked buns.

I actually used this "aerial survellaince" one time to verify that someone from here could actually see the ocean from his townhouse  He wasn't lying...on that particular point.

That's cool. I can see my swimming pool, but I see what you mean about low resolution areas...looked for one of my old haunts and it's just blurs. Hey, anyone wants to watch me skinny dipping does so at his own risk.
