The zoom is better and the picture of my house is from 3-2004. It tells an actual date of the picture. Although it also says I live accross the street from my house.

Again, Interesting. Terraserver has the exact same blockage around DC as google maps.

It kind of makes me want to go scanning around the map to see if I can find other "protected" map sections.

It's also interesting that the supreme court and library of congress are not covered up. Just the capitol and house/senate office buildings. I guess judges are not as important as senators.

Heh, try the "Rachel, NV" trick on that one...the world apparantly ends just west of Rachel, Nevada.

Terraserver says my parents house is about 7 houses to the right and and across a street of where it actually is.
