Dan Bricklin mentioned what looks like a groundbreaking 3D earth viewing application, the EarthViewer 3D program by Keyhole. One can pick a place in the world and view it in 3D down to the meter pixel level in some places, with street names and other data overlayed. The flash demo is by far the best flash application I've ever seen. Not recommended if using a 58K modem connection. The application requires a robust 3D video card, and a broadband connection as the data is streamed realtime. It's not cheap, at a subscription price of $599. per year.
