I remember how excited I was when Google Maps first came into existence. I would seize anyone who seemed to show a particle of interest, sit them down in front of my computer, and click madly on the little square until I could discern my own house. Well, Google Maps has grown up quite a bit since then. Now I can satisfy my need to stalk my own house by flying straight home on the wings of Google Earth....

It was only about 25 miles away, and with Google Maps, especially with the Street View option, it makes going to a place you've never been to before, much less intimidating. We were very pleasantly...
