Advantages: Free, can see anywhere, lots of fun

Disadvantages: None

Google Earth is a fantastic program made by the brilliant Google. The basic idea is that you can search the whole world through satellite images. It is great fun to use and can also be very practical as well.

Like all Google products Google very easy to use and all you really need to do is search and then you can zoom in or out using the mouse. Like all Google products as well it is free!

The first thing most people use it for is finding their house which is good fun and well worth doing. However some more practical uses are to see amazing things without getting off your sofa like the pyramids. Another use could be to plain a route like a Sat Nav so you know where you are going. You could even use it to see a house on the market which you may want to buy or a holiday location. As you can see this program has many excellent uses. You can now even see other planets and even under the sea. Maybe you will find aliens on Mars!

The quality of the pictures is mostly very good but in some more remote areas it can be worse e.g. mountains but really it is amazing that you can see everywhere in the world!

Overall Google Earth is definitely worth a download and I would rate it in the top ten free pieces of software on the internet. The only downside is that there are some worries about privacy with this and Google Street view. However Google is a fantastic company and like all their products this is free and easy to use.
