Google Sees All, and All Use It.


So I stumbled upon this page which, of itself, has almost no practical use, but is cool to see none the less. It is called Daylightmap and what it does is take the images from Google Earth, and overlay them with a day and night time map. It will also show you lights from the ground as seen from space. It also has a kinda cool spin-off, Clouds, by DaylightMap. I kinda like to see the clouds map, then look out the window to see if it is correct. Supposedly the cloud imagery is about 6 hours old, so more often then not, the clouds are not acurate. But what the hell, it's not like it's for research or anything, right?!
