Google Earth- changing the world?

First off, there were those recents reports on Google Earth being a tool used by insurgents, terrorists and Commies. Then, Google Earth was dubbed the biggest threat to democracy.

Now, Google Earth is the next marketing tool- companies are painting huge ads on their roofs for the best equipping the aerial photos. Cool.

    I think all restaurants should have pictures on their roofs depicting the type of food they serve, for example, large pictures of maki or nigiri, or maybe large cups of latté. Could be a very helpful feature… :-)
