Is there a website/program out there kind of like/similar to Google Earth?

I love Google Earth but am looking for something else like it to use. Anybody know anything?

Bing Maps are similar and even contain a helicopter-style bird’s eye view, but they aren’t compatible with Opera, so they are obviously completely useless. If you will excuse me, I need to go aerate my nose, as it gets dry after being held up high for so long.

Yes, Virtual Earth by Microsoft (Bing) is working on a much better version, not yet available, and they have JOB OPENINGS!

OpenStreetMap is a project similar to Google Maps but with an open license for their data.

Celestia I believe now also includes support for viewing the earth, in addition to space. Uses NASA data IIRC.
