I Feel The Earth Google Under My Feet

    I am playing with Google Earth and it is freaking me out. Here I am - in the only office in the department who doesn’t deal with GIS and I’m being seduced. I have looked at Fraser Island - then I flew to where my rellies live, in Marblehead, Massachusetts (that is the first time I’ve ever typed that word correctly without having to look it up) and I can see the names of streets, lakes, football grounds. Phwoar! J, who works here, is completely besotted with it - luckily it is not yet available on Mac, or his day would have been eaten by Google Earth. It’s about a 10MB download, and you need a newish computer - it’s v.cool. Particularly for geographically challenged nuffies like myself.

    Oh- and for font freaks - this is a pretty cool blog: FontLeech.
