Have you seen the new hi-res images in Google Earth? Check out New York City. Then, go check out Dubai, UAE. THAT'S how the OTHER half lives, for sure.

Check it out: Getting the most out of Google Maps
Again, one thing in my reader pointed to another which led me to another, etc, and I landed here: http://mashable.com/2008/12/04/how-to-get-the-most-out-of-google-maps/
You say you can't use Google Earth at school? This may just be a very acceptable alternative. The trick to getting the most out of it is having a gmail account. Schools should REALLY be looking hard at getting the Google Docs for education. It opens up SO much!
Anyway, check out the tips on this page, including the video that he did that shows some great tricks in Google Earth. They may not all be for you, but there's sure to be at least one.

Google Earth Pro - Free to Educators!
Once again, my PLN (Personal Learning Network) came through. This time via a Diigo post from Vicki Davis pointing to this post: http://www.ncs-tech.org/?p=783 that tells how you (if you're an educator) can get Google Earth Pro for FREE!!
Really, if you teach Social Studies, History, Geography, or any similar subject, and you're NOT using Google Earth, I have to wonder why not. PLEASE read the article to hear about some GREAT layers available in Google Earth. I've mentioned some great google earth layers and discoveries before. Remember, you should also subscribe to the gearthblog.
Do check out that article!
