Default Google Earth, where is your house?

It looks me fun to see where everyone's living!
So just go to google earth and search your house.

When founded, you can post the link here, so we can see where you are living :p

My house is standing in the center of the image. Unfortunatly, I can't zoom in any further.

My house

at the upper right corner of the map you see three buttons called "map, satellite and hybrid". Click on satellite for euhm... satellite images. ( not all parts of the world do have satellite images though )

If you have found your house you can click the "link to this page" button at the right corner of your screen to change the link in your explorer.

Hope that makes sense.

Looks like everyone is coming from the UK, but me.
From the satellite images, Manchester looks like a really beautifull city.

Let's just say that Manchester has a bit of a bad reputation. During the late 1980's/early 1990's there was an awful lot of gun and drug crime, tons of unemployment and many run down, poor areas.

I believe that the city as a whole isn't as bad now though as it used to be, but we all still like to make fun of it...
