I just checked the shoreline in Google Earth. It's OK. You can't see it from space.

I don't think the "I'm feeling lucky" roll-the-dice button that is mentioned at the end of this video is on the iOS version of Google Earth.
Otherwise, really cool video!

I love the fact that Pokemon Go was literally created by Niantic whose CEO (John Hanke) is a CIA agent, whose funding comes from CIA's venture capital arm (In-Q-Tel), and is linked to the CIA-funded Keyhole program (now Google Earth) which dealt with mass satellite surveillance, and which accidentally turned on all kinds of surveillance permissions in its app.

I don't believe that this is any kind of surveillance conspiracy, but it's a beautiful conspiracy theory foundation. So much better than chemtrails.

Looking at Google Earth, that marina is in an area that gets really deep, really quickly. The shoreline around it looks about 45 deg slopes.

I did the lat and long in Google Earth, this is in Northover England on Street Rd.... so there's that.

My buddy Mike Garfield, over at globalish says about this video:

"t’s that time of the year again: since 2008 (a million years ago!), DJ Earworm’s mashup mania crescendos once a year to form an epic audio collage that features Billboard’s favorite 25, all woven into one symphonic DJ mix. It’s like a Google Earth view of the musical identity of young Americans – by zooming out until a year of singles happens in four minutes, culture seems like nature, and the spirit of the times shines through the often-mediocre music Earworm brings together. Seeing Earth from space, we found a new identity beyond the nation states; a similar escape into low orbit around Pop reveals the flavor of the age with more appeal and sentiment than year-end news reviews.
It isn’t merely that “United States of Pop” resamples factory-assembled dross to offer tunes more interesting than their gathered parts. “Do What You Wanna Do” sings volumes about how and who we are right now, the character of mainstream culture we can’t see until it’s past, the air that we’ve been breathing without paying much attention. The cynical might say it demonstrates how all this music sounds the same, how easily it’s recombined – and while that’s definitely true, it’s also and more deeply true that we’re in this together, and will be remembered sharing space on stage as actors in a common play of history. Here is a window into how this moment will be seen, in digest form, the way we now look back on 1969. But go back and look at the mixes from 2008 – 2013, and a trend is obvious: even lousy music’s getting better. It’s an optimistic sign that we are getting deeper as a culture. Let’s hope.
Earworm’s genius lies not only in up-cycling tracks I’d rather never hear again as standalone recordings, but also in transforming the familiar and mundane into a damn-near magical homage to each year’s zeitgeist. This must be what an end-of-life review feels like: everything remembered and forgotten rushes back for one last joyous and nostalgic celebration.
Here’s to the change we all seek in 2015."

I don't know, I thought I did pretty good.

This is a scam. Once you click on the link from the description, the one saying the concept might be real, you reach some site where you get infected. My antivirus warned me about "Google Earth" trying to add something like "Google.exe" from Windows Temp into startup. First, I don't have Google Earth installed, second, unlike Chrome, Earth had no service or startup entries not even for updates, third, it only happens when I go to that website, not before, not after.
Watch out what you click on.

So... does this mean the Afgan's get really really good real-time Google Earth res now?

I hope this comes to Google Earth. I'd love to explore.

[Google] Earth you SCARY! =oO
