Around The Earth In Your Computer

Google always has the creativity. It's the very first search engine in the world; furthermore, I think everyone has heard of Gmail. Due to the big capacity of Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail and MSN then increase their e-mail storage. Google takes the lead. Now, Google has again shown us the a special use of your computer, that is exploring the earth by Google Earth!

You may doubt how Google Earth can collect all the geographical detail of all places on earth, but it really gives quality images of major countries. I'm so excited about this software, that I want to share this good news with you before learning how to use it. I only know how to find a place with it, you just need to type the name of the place and it'll bring you to the location. It's terrific. You can now explore the famous cities as long as you like, by just sitting in front of your computer.

There are many other function of Google Earth that are all very useful and interesting. It can take you for a sightseeing of the top spots, show the coffee shop and banks in that city, find the available route from one place to another within a region, capture the image as you like and etc. Are they really fantastic? I think there are still a lot to do with this software, because I don't know how to use many of the buttons. You can find them out if you're interested.

Let me tell you something secret. Do you see the picture on the left? It's a capture from the Google Earth, which shows you the place where I'm living in Hong Kong. Yes, you can see the building of my home in this picture. However I'm now in Fuzhou(福州), otherwise you can meet me there. You don't need to be disappointed; I'll be back to Hong Kong on the first of August. If you're lucky, you can run into me by coincidence after my arrival. Who knows!
