I just place it in random countries and look at the streetview, it's pretty cool.
When I wanted to see Rome I placed my puppet somewhere in that city from far and by chance when it zoomed in I was right in the middle of the colosseum xD
is it normal that I use google maps for fun?
Me too. I even use the Flight Simulator version, although I keep crashing the damn plane. I used to be addicted to worldcityphotos.org but I like the interactivity of Google maps.
I even use it to check in on places I've visited in Scotland, England, and Wales to see how they've changed or to see how well I remember. And foreign countries are great. I've spent hours wandering around NYC. My last one was a couple of weeks ago when I spent about two hours in Iceland. In fact, I'm due another play so after I've stopped asking questions (and before the men's tennis final comes on), I think I'll have a bit of a wander around India and Pakistan.
I prefer Google Sky to Google Earth. Somehow, it's more interesting and I've found so many strange things on there!
Oh yeah, completely normal. Some people may say its kinda weird but it's not. I'm on google maps a lot just exploring, looking at airports and interesting places. It's great!
Have you ever googled directions from Seattle to Honolulu? Someone at Google has a sense of humor.
I love maps! I once had a job where I had to draw them. This was before technology made them more accessible. And I still get paid to play with Google maps, it's great!
Same here. There is actually this game I heard about, takes a couple of hours and solid internet connection. Basically you go to some random country and click on streetview. Once you're on streetview you try to find the nearest airport. I had a friend who played it and it took him somewhere around 4hrs.
