I found this pretty damn interesting - TNO posts an image that's about 5 gigs large, and allows the free Internet to zoom in, zoom out, and pan through any where they desire to. It's pretty damn awesome being able to see cars, people, bikes, liscence plates...

Post here if you find anything interesting.

I thought that was awesome.  Was wondering how they had focus in close and far away with one pic.  Until I noticed some moving cars missing pieces.  The pic is made up of ALOT of smaller pics.  But still very cool.  Did you see the womans shirt on the roof?  (I'm reaching there, it's probably not a shirt...)
