A globe that sits inside your PC

would u like to have one? Visit Google Earth for more info.

i dont know but probably, this is old news to some people. i just found out about this last night from X*iaxue's blog and decided to give it a try. i was all "oh wow!!" and "wahhh...", really gave me the 'goshwow' effect! try it! amazing!

oh u must be wondering what am i babbling about here... ok Google Earth is actually a piece of software that provides you with the satelite image of the earth. u can zoom in to specific region and u can even blow it up so close u can even see buildings and houses and roads etc etc... too bad they dont have much details on Malaysia yet. last night, i tried to look for my house but unfortunately, so far u can only see terrains and some lines which i gather to be the roads. i also saw something black/brownish in color and when i zoomed in, the word "kinibulu" appeared. i was like "WTF is kinibulu???" after much thinking, i figured that it must be Kinabalu since the location is somewhere near Ranau.

then we switched view to Australia and then to Singapore - where we can clearly see the cities and the buildings. i can even see cars!!!. even JB was available but only JB. close-up for skudai (and the area outside JB) is not available yet.

here are some of the image i captured











interesting!

in another note, i just found out that my blog is actually listed in SabahForum. Thanks a lot for adding me .



wah... mrB also here

stated here, "a girl from KK"... actually i'm from tambunan but currently staying in penampang... hmmm... perhaps tambunan is more appropriate? but it's ok tho, not a big deal anyway...

Amazing isn't it this Google Earth? Try tilting it and one can see the terrains topology. Mt. Kinabalu is so cool!
