I downloaded Google Earth last week when it came out, and my kids totally love it, especially my first grader who squeals with glee as we go zooming all over the world willy-nilly. So, with that in mind, I present our Site of the Day, Google Earth Hacks, a collection of awesome shots of landmarks all over the world. You'll need to register in order to participate in the forums. All of these shots were created using KML, and if you'd like a very nice tutorial to figure out exactly what this is and how to use it, check out Google Earth KML Tutorial. Here are a few images that I was able to view in my own copy of Google Earth:

• The Pyramids at Giza
• Mont. St. Michel, France
• Three Sisters, a group of mountains in Oregon
