Go here - http://maps.live.com/default.aspx?wip=2&v=2&rtp=~&FORM=MSNH
Then input your address. Once it shows a map over the place, click "birds eye view" on the upper part of the map screen. You can go one step closer by clicking zoom.
Lots better detail then Google Earth.

Not older for me. I have not only my new addition but my yard back to normal in these. In Google Maps, my house is still under construction and the yard is dirt.

Mass was the first state to have birds eye, a few years back. It was paid by the state to have it done. Done from a Cessena too. It rocks

The one of one of our houses is actually from late this Summer apparently. That's pretty nifty.

I do GIS (geographic info systems) in local government and we're actually getting ready to contract with the company that flies the "birds-eye" photography live local uses. Or what those in the business call, oblique photography. This company called, Pictometry (www.pictometry.com) contracts mostly to local governments at a pretty affordable price (compared to traditional orthorectified aerial photography) because, in turn, they sell the images to companies like Microsoft for their Live Local thingy. They use a patented technology and capture all four views in one flight path (five if you count the overhead).

It's pretty awesome and exciting shit and one of the things that make my job interesting and exciting at times.

its pretty damn slick...i think the bird's eye is a huge leap over regular satellite shots

It was newer for me on MS than on Google Maps. Guess it depends on where you live. MS's Live Search for Windows Mobile with GPS is better than Google's app too.
