This is absolutely gobsmacking!

Obviously not everywhere is covered in high resolution - ie Chorley, but Manchester looks mint, you can zoom right in to see cars on the G-Mex carpark!

I've been having a gander at Egypt, the Gand Canyon and other assorted stuff. Currently trying to spot our old house near Athens, but not having much luck!
