			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Because it&#8217;s bloody brilliant and will eat away all your productivity and you will do nothing but sit on it for many hours. (That&#8217;s how I lost all my sleep last night)</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t be discouraged if you are from india, because <a href="http://earth.google.com">google earth</a> has atleast a low-resolution version of it with altitude details. So I was able to look at the Bangalore, which is essentially the <a href="http://maps.google.com/maps?q=Bangalore,+India&#038;ll=12.957172,77.612743&#038;spn=0.134926,0.179901&#038;t=k&#038;hl=en">maps</a> version of it, but you can start driving out of Bangalore. I was able to track Mysore, BR hills, Bandipur etc etc and with elevation details, I was looking at all the hills and water holes in BR hills where I usually sit to watch animals.</p>
<p>If you are in the US, its a different ball game. I spent 2 hours driving through the bay area, looking at all the familiar roads and landmarks. Now I want to see the MSN version of it <img src='http://kalyanvarma.net/journal/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
