Hey, when I first upgraded google earth to its new version, I immediately looked for my jeep and actually spotted it at few different places :)

Maybe I should post mine.

Lol - cool! I've tried the local supermarket, nearby by old house - nothing on both counts. And you see the resolution of the shots is so poor you can only really see the spare tyre! So, the only way I know its mine is its a 4x4 parked where I often park, spare tyre on the back, and I think I can see a hint of grey from my bumpers :p

Go onto Google Earth, and just find your house see if its there, shopping centres, outside work/university: anywhere you normally park.

The satellite photos can be very old, so if you moved recently, outside your old house, etc.

Lots of searching - you're looking for just one car on face of the Earth :)

But its not so hard!

That's really neat. I've seen my house from space also.

Interesting technology - I know the military has much much better resolution where they can see a dime clearly on the ground. Too bad they can't find Osama and Bigfoot so we can clear up a few things!! Oh, wait - maby they are hiding out in a cave together.

Depends where you are and if they have uploaded the maps for your area. Mine wqas only recently uploaded and still you can see that the cars look fuzzy.
