My Three Links

Flash Earth is a pretty flash application that allows you to view recently updated global maps, that can zoom down to the street level in most places. I think the NASA setting is the neatest, check it out now and see tropical storm Hanna, raging across the southeast :D

Lilly is just plain cool. In the video she's not even 2 years old, and she already has greater geographical knowledge than most American adults. Maybe this link isn't really related to this class, but Lilly totally has a geography related career lined up some day.

Wikimapia is like Wikipedia and Googlemaps smushed into one. The small white squares on the map indicate zoom-in capacity, and clicking on specific countries, states, even counties provides links to useful related websites and comments straight from citizens all over the world!
