Google Earth

Google Earth is a great new tool for Geography and Science. Once installed on your computer(click on Get Google Earth) you can zoom in and out to get satellite imagery and maps from all over the world. It is still in the early stages of development but there are great detailled pics from many cities including Madrid. For example, here is the Eiffel Tower with the River Seine running alongside, the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, and above Central London and St. Peter´s Basilica in Rome.
