Summary
Google satellite images let you see the world without leaving your computer. Well, North America for now, but more later, I'm sure.

Okay, this has nothing to do with anything, but it's just cool, OK?

Google sightseeing. Interesting things in their satellite images. A sampling:

• A freighter plying the ocean waves.
• A flock of geese.
• A fire in mid burn.
• Caterpillar Tractor Co. writes its name with bulldozers.

His interests include designing APIs and programming languages using general principles of human factors design because of his radical hypothesis that programmers are human, and other applications of this same principle to software design, management, and production.
