Google have been at Aerial satellite pictures for a while now, but the top down views are already a little old hat. Although now Windows Live Maps have been flying all over northern England huddled in a small aircraft with high definition cameras and clipboards, taking multiple diagonal-in (birds eye) views of every second of their voyage.
What you get is four views of every area which has been snapped, so on their website you can rotate around high quality pictures of any one area. All you need is Internet Explorer or Firefox on a Windows machine. Use the controls on the left to rotate and switch between arial and birds eye views.
Brilliant!
I've found two areas of interest, Birmingham's inner city areas including the spanking new shimmering Bullring shopping centre, and the Blackpool seafront and Pleasure Beach.
Birmingham Birds-eye-view | Blackpool Birds-eye-view
They hope to snap up more of the England landscape in the next year or so, so remember to check for updates. The same extensive photography has been done in many areas of America including New York, Las Vegas and Cedar Point theme park.

 This years metal thrash-up 3 day festival at donnington park had its headline line-up announced this evening on Radio1. Meanwhile, hell freezes over. My Chemical Romance, the most emo/rubbish/sold-out band is headlining the first night. How, what? I know, I know. In a world where Trivium get pissed on (err, literally), for supporting at Iron Maiden, I wish MCR the best of luck in a line up headining with... err... Iron Maiden.
Otherwise, Linkin Park will clearly be touring after the release of their spanking new album very soon. Iron Maiden, slightly more fitting.
A very tame list of headliners for this years fest, where are Rage Against the Machine?

Bittorrent software aint getting half old-hat these days - right? The last few trackers are on their last legs heading towards closure, the torrents are slowing up to a standstill. So wheres the new technology? Isnt it about now that all the pirates face a revolutionary transfer from one network to the next? Or does this spell the end to pirate software? Who knows!
At least the only (slightly old) news to come out of this is that worldwide-popular bittorrent tracker 'The-Pirate-Bay.org' are staging a bid to move to sealand. Sealand, whats that? Sealand is a magic land of pirating fun and games, with no authorities to protect the content of other countries - whos to tell them to shut-the-hell down on their disused oil-rig type thing.
As long as they win their bid for Sealand, you can all be enjoying juicy torrent content for years to come.
You can donate to the buy-sealand fund, if you like. I know you suckers will do anything for pirate software.
