But I don't think it would be very efficient to have millions of satellites all waiting around for internet users to position them to see there house.

how do you swith the map on mapquest to see the houses?

[Elvandil]

Try TerraClient. It's a freeware app that accesses TerraServer, but it makes it a bit easier to control your views:

Think another good site bites the dust. Used to be a button where you clicked Aeriel views. Guess they all want to sell you something. Mapquest was good but you did sort of still need to know where you were going. Still haven't found one that will let you count the nails in the roof.

Damn I even had to go up this fall and inspect the chimney. Yup, needed some tar on the flashing, why couldn't I have seen that on them skyshots.

There was bird poop in the gutters too.
